Lyrics
Nine Times Blue
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.
There's a certain something in the way
You looked at me and said you'd stay
That let me know that I was out of line
But I didn't know what else to do
And like a fool, I tested you
By demanding things of you which weren't mine
And now I feel like such a fool
For making you crawl back to me
But you did it with such love
That you're standing far above
Me and all I did to you
I'm sorry, now what can I do?
I know that never in the world
Could I have found me such a girl
Who's there to pick me up before I fall
And if in the end, we should go
Both our seperate ways, I know
The lesson I've learned here is worth it all
'Cause now I feel like such a fool
For making you crawl back to me
But you did it with such love
That you're standing far above
Me and all I did to you
I'm sorry, now what can I do?
I know that never in the world
Could I have found me such a girl
Who's there to pick me up before I fall
And if in the end we should go
Both our seperate ways, I know
The lesson I've learned here is worth it all
