Archie The Equilibrist
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.
It was a long, long time ago
The morning sun had begun to glow
It was early, it's light was upon me
The letter was clear, the air was thin
You wrote to say that I won't fit in
With your heart
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
It was a dark, cold starry night
The moon spoke of another life
You could hope for but never believe in
The ink it was fresh upon your hands
You knew you'd never understand
The way that I could make you feel sorry
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
If only life was more like living
If all that time the walls were caving
You'd cry you'd, hold me, you'd say you regret all you've done
If you could see me now
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
