Legendary
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 you've given all that you could give to me
I know there'll come a day I understand
Until then I'll be trying to solve your mystery
And wonder why I couldn't make you stay
Smiling through denial, my specialty
I thought that was a good thing for awhile
You gave me all your secrets, were you testing me?
How could I do anything but smile?
Reenact your legendary tragedy
Do to me what has been done to you
Is that the only point to all this misery
Is there any reason I should cry?
Heal, it takes time
And you gave me all you had
I know in time I will believe
That I loved you, did you love me?
Heal, it takes time
And you gave me all you had
I know in time I will believe
That I loved you, did you love me?
You loved me.
