Lyrics
You
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.
You are the one who makes me happy
When everything else turns to grey
Yours is the voice that wakes me mornings
And sends me out into the day
You are the crowd that sits quiet
Listening to me
And all the mad sense I make
You are one of the few things worth remembering
And since it's all true
How could anyone mean more to me than you?
Sorry if sometimes I look past you
There's no one beyond your eyes
(Beyond your eyes)
Inside my head the wheels are turning
Hey, sometimes I'm not so wise (so wise)
You are my heart and my soul
My inspiration
Just like the old love song goes
You are one of the few things worth remembering
And since it's all true
How could anyone mean more to me than you?
(Than you)
(Beyond your eyes)
You're my heart and my soul
My inspiration
Just like the old song goes
You are (you are) one of the few things worth remembering
And since it's all true
How could anyone mean more to me than you?
(Than you)
