Lyrics
He Said
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.
Just before the lights went out
We sat up and talked about
All the things that we would be
I just wanted him to be with me
But he had a mind of his own
And he did not mind being alone
Left me there in our little world
Left me there like a little girl
He said don't get hung up
Hang ups will get you down
He said don't look back
Look up and then look around
That time I was feeling high
Like I never had to try
To kick myself up out of bed
Kick these worries out of my head
He said it's better this way, yeah
One day you'll understand
He said I'm leavin' today and
He let go of my hand
I know that I'll never see him again
I feel the same way that I saw him then
I know that when I get back on my feet
I will walk away from misery
What do you say when it's all been said
How do you feel when it's all been felt
Where do you go when it's all gone
And you don't care enough to carry on
Well, I say close your eyes
Look down deep inside
Someone is there for you
Someone who cares for you
Well, I know it's easier to say then do
Easier to look away than see it through
I know it's easier to think than feel
Easier to make it up than make it real
Oh it's hard to love
Oh it's hard not to love
Oh it's hard to love
Oh it's hard not to love
Oh now take me ther don't leave me here (x2)
Oh take me home and disappear
Oh oh oh no no no no no no
