Lyrics
You Have The Right
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.
It only went higher with feet to the fire
Your hands on my shoulders, my lips to your hands
And grass so much greener and air that much clearer
You draw your breath nearer wherever I am
How it rose, how it feels in the minor
And desires turned major that say you
Ho oh
You have the right to look away
And take a night or take a day
And time after time it comes to you
How could you barely even choose?
You'll never win and you will not lose
And time after time I will trust you
It bends at the knees and it sends you its feelings
In packages wrapped with your eyes sung and blue
On choosing the answers, you pray till your hands hurt
No, love's not an answer till it ends up all loose
Well body rose, body feels in the minor
Biding all of the time till we choose you
You have the right to look away
You may take a night or take a day
And time after time it comes to you
How could you barely ever choose?
You'll never win and you will not lose
And time after time I will trust you
