Lyrics
Relif
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.
Flash flood, you got too comfortable, so I showed you who's really in control.
You gave all of your savings to the poor.
Lightning, on the river and you're shivering with your fishing pole.
Same night, you bought a ring and you proposed.
You never really know what you can't really see;
I'll be there, I'll be there.
You made it out alive, oh what a relief;
I'll be there, I'll be there.
Earthquake, in your pyjamas huddled in doorways, while your house is swaying.
Blue blood pumping like a hunter's fist.
I love you Shay, your face is make, all mine.
Thank-you for keeping me safe, even though you know it don't always go that way.
You never really know what you can't really see;
I'll be there, I'll be there.
You made it out alive, oh what a relief;
I'll be there, I'll be there.
Everything will be explained.
Your wild guess, everything will be explained.
Go ahead, everything will be explained.
Your wild guess, everything will be explained.
