Lyrics
Where Were You
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 was a backing track
Saving my green voices back
Disguising the obvious
That I had no one to sing for
I lived in a paper bin
Which I lay curled up and forgotten in
With an unfinished lovers sin
Tattooed on my forehead
Oh oh oh
Where were you
Had I known you then
The outcome would have been better
I got used to the treadmill love
Where no matter how fast you run
You're stuck at the starting point
Only exhausted
I was an anonymous author
Of songs I not dare to share
Lacking the audience
Of a lovers ear
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Where were you
Had I known you then
The outcome would have been better
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented this
You could have prevented ...
Oh oh oh
Where were you
Had you known me then
The outcome would have been better
