Lyrics
Old Man + The Sea
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 made a promise to yourself you'd find her,
and bring her back for the world to see.
She is shimmering, she is beautiful;
I thought catching her would set you free.
But she was such a long way down
she was such a long way
she was such a long way do-wwn
she was such a long way
Got the line pulled tight
cut through your hands you were up all night
Wwas it hallucination
or did your eyes see right?
Did your eyes see...
oooh-ooh oh oh.
ohhh oh oh ooohhh...
(x2)
You made a promise to yourself you'd find her;
bring her back for the world to see.
She is beautiful, she is shimmering.
Thought catching her would set you free.
She was such a long way down
She was such a long way
She was such a long way do-wwn
She was such a long way
