Lyrics
X & Y
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.
Trying hard to speak
And fighting with my weak hand
Driven to distraction
So part of the plan
When something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to repair it
Any way you can
I dive in at the deep end
You become my best friend
I wanna love you but I don't know if I can
I know something is broken
And I'm trying to fix it
Trying to repair it anyway I can
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space and singing
Oh, oh
You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space
You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space and singing
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
