Lyrics
Halo
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.
Everytime I get away you
Find a way to reel me back in, ooh
Tell me that you love me
Hold me tight so we can always be friends
Ohh, I swear, I've said it before
And I'll say it again, ooh
Everytime I get away
You find a way to pull me back in, ooh
Why does it take so long?
Why does it feel so wrong?
Why does it take so long?
Knew I couldn't help myself
I had to lay low
Though I couldn't help myself
I lost my halo
Took me by the hand
And said: Remember
All the good times we had?
I remember how
You took my favorite knife
And slipt it under my skin
Ooh, I swear
I've said it before
And I'll say it again
Ooh, everytime I get away you
Find a way back under my skin
Why does it take so long?
Why does it feel so wrong?
Knew I couldn't help myself
I had to lay low
Though I couldn't help myself
I lost my halo
All my life
With a skeleton
I had to let go
Though I couldn't help myself
I lost my halo
I lost my halo
I lost my halo
