Sometimes
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.
Sometimes, every once in a while
There's a vision I want to appear
Sometimes, every once in a while
There's a sound I want to hear
I know every once in a while I feel the things I fear
Sometimes, every once in a while you are not near
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I'll never believe in you again
Like I never touched your skin
Like my voice was a little too thin
Like my love was not that strong
How long does this go on?
How long does this go on?
Sometimes, every once in a while
I get the feeling that I just don't care
Sometimes, every once in a while love is in the air
I know every once in a while
You're bound to break my back
But sometimes, every once in a while I've learned to fight back
And I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I'll never believe in you again
Like I never touched your skin
Like my voice was a little too thin
Like my love was always wrong
How long does this go on?
How long does this go on?
My love, my love, my love
My love is not, is not easy
It's like a child, child, child
It's mean and wild and
Oh, you break my heart
Tearing it apart
I know, know, know, know, know, know, know
Sometimes, every once in a while
I get the feeling that I just don't care
Sometimes, every once in a while love is in the air
I know every once in a while
You're bound to break my back
Sometimes, every once in a while
I've learned to fight back
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I'll never believe in you again
Like I never touched your skin
How long does this go on?
How long does this go on?
How long does this go on?
How long does this go on?
