Lyrics
Open E
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.
I know that the times we've spent together
Weren't always meant to be
The voices outside we heard so clearly
Weren't meant for us to hear
Though it's true I was with you
An everlasting moment grew to be
Listen to the other side of life
Listen, don't turn back the tide of life
If I should go and try to find alone
The thing inside my mind
Each and every day I dream a dream
In which I don't return
But I can never feel the threat
Of threat of losing anything I get for free
Listen to the other side of life
Listen, don't turn back the tide of life
