Lyrics
The Only One
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.
Did you ever make believe
That you were someone else
Someone not yourself
You’d get away with everything
And never have to tell
But you could never tell
And in your dreams a thousand times
You opened up your mouth
The truth came spilling out
When you wake up by your side
The love that you have lied to
Never had a doubt
Which makes it so much harder
You were the only one, you were the only one
These things can’t be undone, so please don’t ask me how
You were the only one ‘til now
Did you ever make believe
That you could feel the same
When everything had changed?
Could you ask your love to stay
Wear your scarlet shame
Knowing you betrayed them?
Would you wait a thousand years
If that’s how long it takes to trust you?
Will it ever go away?
Will the feelings ever fade?
What if it never goes away?
Which makes it so much harder
And I’m sorry, so sorry. I cannot imagine how you feel
I’m desperate and empty, broken down, broken down, broken down
