Lyrics
When You Walk In
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.
Your heart is broken
Your world is a bitter place
Your confidence shaken
Your faith erased
What you depend on
Is up in the air
You want to move forward
With no forward there
Your husband left you
No good reason why
He wants a new life
You want to die
He wants to be your friend
But you can't be his
Tell him to go to hell
You already did
The problem's not hatred
There's no hate from him
The facts of indifference are cruel
With it's pleasant skin and it's brutal grin
How the world learns your name
And it spins away
It's a question of damage
And wasted years
But love's never wasted
Though it led you here
It might be the worse place that you've ever been
Still you light up a room
When you walk in
You light up a room when you walk in
