Water Turns Back
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.
It took the first ten times to get your face just right
It took the first ten times to get your face just right
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
But you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
Oh you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
I've got nowhere to lay my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh god I might just lose my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh no
We took her hands then you start to say goodnight
We took her hands then you start to say goodnight
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
But you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
Oh you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
I've got nowhere to lay my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh god I might just lose my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh no
It took the first ten times to get your face just right
It took the first ten times to get your face just right
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
Give a light and I'll turn back to it
But you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
Oh you're still so old
But you've got somewhere to go
I've got nowhere to lay my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh god I might just lose my brain
You think it makes me act insane
Oh no
