Under the Tongue
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.
What are we doing here?
Why have we come?
Did we come for communion
Under the tongue?
There's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot to unfold
In the dark
In the dark
There's a lot we don't show
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
What are you doing here
Have you lost your way?
Have you come to move close, dear?
Is something to say?
Cause there's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot that's untold
This is not
This is not
This is not yours to hold
Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love leaves me cold
Cause your love
What am I doing here?
Is it something I've done?
If it's time for confession
Then bring out the nun
There's a lot
There's a lot
There's a lot I don't know
I forgot
I forgot
I forgot to let go, of your love
So leave me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
Your love leaves me cold
