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.

Never felt alone till the late night

Never knew she was my home till the tears dried

Working on the karma, but it takes time

Innocence and sadness was a fine line

Better savour every moment as it flies by

Every minute, boy, better live it, boy

Maybe someday you'll be happy for me, oh I

Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy

The reason I stay, wеll, I need ya today

Baby, I would bleed in your name

I'm trying to be who you need me to bе

I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute

I'll sing into the cold dark night till you listen

Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden

I'm trying to be who you need me to be, well

Never felt alone till the late night

Never knew she was my home till the king cried

Lost inside the forest, but it feels fine

Innocence and sadness in the same night

All the love that just got stolen from your wide eyes

Every minute, boy, better live it, boy

Let your tears erode my shoulder like a cliffside

Every minute, boy, better live it boy

The reason I stay, well, I need ya today

Baby, I would bleed in your name

I'm trying to be who you need me to be

I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute

I'll sing into the cold dark night, you listen

Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden

I'm trying to be who you need me to be, well

I'd do anything for smiles, I'd move heaven and earth

Nobody told me at the start how heaven could hurt

I'll be waiting under streetlight at Bowry and 3rd

Know I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya

Darling, don't spend another second wondering what you're worth

Don't you ever get affected by the ways of this world

Wouldn't say my soul's protected, but there's something at work

I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya

Better savour every moment as it flies by

Every minute, boy, better live it, boy

Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time

Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy

Better savour every moment as it flies by

Every minute, boy, better live it, boy

Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time

Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy
