Lyrics
A Short Lifespan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Johnny spent his whole life alone
Writing letters to his ex-girlfriend
As if it was not complicated
Then he throws it all away.
It's just a matter of time
Till he finds somebody else
That may fill the holes of his chest
Just well.
(Chorus)
Well…let's just have a conversation
For a little while
And I promise I won't touch your body
Once upon a time
A girl without a hero
Until I appeared in front of her
And made her eyes swim in mine…just tell me why.
He's got a really short lifespan
Smoking up so many ciga…(shhh)
Secrets that he keeps in silence
Little by little will come back.
It's just a matter of time
Till he finds somebody else
To blame for all these happenings
I can't explain…Oh! What a shame.
(Chorus)
Well…let's just have a conversation
For a little while
And I promise I won't touch your body
Once upon a time
A girl without a hero
Until I appeared in front of her
And made her eyes swim in mine…just tell me why.
I can't explain everything to you
Cause inside me…
I can't explain everything to you
Cause inside me there's a hole
And I don't want you there
Even if a need you, how I need you.
And I attempt to deceive my own heart
Ran over by so many cars
Still I'll cross the street
Just to see you, how I miss you dear.
(Chorus)
Well…let's just have a conversation
For a little while
And I promise I won't touch your body
Once upon a time
A girl without a hero
Until I appeared in front of her
And made her eyes swim in mine…just tell me why.
