The Only One I Know
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.
The only one I know
Has come to take me away
The only one I know
Is mine when she stitches me
The only one I see
Has found and aching in me
The only one I see
Has turned her tongue into me
CHORUS
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Everyone has been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
The only one I know
Never cries, never opens her eyes
The only one I know
Wide awake and then she's away
The only one I see
Is mine when she walks down our street
The only one I see
Has carved her way into me
CHORUS (2X)
