Lyrics
Ode to a Girl
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.
What I chose was to sin
I suppose
But it was in an age of piracy
It was your neck or your lips
I forget
Or the worlds in your eyes that set me free
39 Steps to re-have and regret
And I'm found in the place
I want to be
Stand on the shore and let slip the dogs of war
Arm and arm in havoc, just like before
This is an ode to a girl that I know
This is an ode to a girl
Let go of your frown
And lie next to me
It's a dangerous girl who thinks too much
Ours is the world?
I think it's fair to say as such
And may it last forever
Now I'm with you
This is an ode to a girl that I know
This is an ode to a girl
This is an ode to a girl that I know
This is an ode to a girl
This is an ode to a girl that I know
This is an ode, to a girl
