Lyrics
Words
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.
Words won't come, and be the magic we need
If it was only as easy, as something you say or read
If only i felt i had the time to spare anymore
Or the strength to give, hours to live, looking for
Words
I do remember, days of nothing beyond
All the things we were feeling, and the earth that we
Walked upon
Now that the earth has frozen beneath our souls
And is no longer breathing, only the wind is
Whispering words
Well i've seen with my eyes, and i've heard with my
Ears
And i knew in my heart over all of those years
Of the love that we've now gone and left far behind
And the love i fear we might not ever find
And the words won't come and be the magic we need
If it was only as easy as something you say or read
If only i felt i had the time to spare anymore
Or the blood to bleed, patience i need looking for
Words
Strength to give, hours to live looking for words
