For Real
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.
Easy, I'm taking it easy
Cause life's too short to give my heart
So freely
Simple, what I want is simple
Like falling rain, summer or spring
Here I am
Oh all I know is lonely ain't that bad
Without the tears and without the past
And the memories of how I kept hanging on
I am all I need for real
Cause now I see that what I wanted in
You was always in me for real
Silence, it was beautiful silence
After I got over my last heart
Break it was quiet
Now hear for, what are here for
To create complications and take me through changes
Just tell me now
Oh all I know is lonely ain't that bad
Without tears and without the past
And the memories of how I kept hanging on
I am all I need for real
Cause now I see that what I wanted in
You was always in me for real
I was chasing love and it just kept running,
I settled and you wasn´t the one.
I gave you everything (that's when our love was real)
I don't know why you tired to make me past
What's the reason, boy can you explain?
Never knew how to love me
Maybe that was the point
Maybe its not your fault
Can't blame ya for whatcha don't know
Oh, s hould've never trusted you
But now I know that
I am all I need for real
Cause now I see that what I wanted in
You was always in me for real
I am all I need for real
Cause now I see that what I wanted in
You was always in me for real
You thought I wasn't going nowhere
Didn't you, but I'm happy about it (yes I am)
I was depending on you
Now I'm depending on me
