Oh Daniel
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 sun rose this morning
Over my bruised head
I can't remember the things I'd said
The air is getting dryer
The days slip through my hands
Today I hope to know, to understand
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
What I was doing
I think she'll move out West
Be with the ones she knows
Leave the wreckage of this one man show
And my hands will keep shaking
And my eyes will stay wet
The more I try to remember the more I forget
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
What I was doing
You can do it all right
Love everyone in sight
Live out your dreams and take on the night
You can do the best
Anybody's done
But you're still gonna end up hurting someone
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
What I was doing
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
Oh Daniel I wish I knew
