Lyrics

Read It In The Paper

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 read it in the paper,

The paper said the times had changed

But if you only lose an hour

Or if you only gain an hour it feels the same

If you only lose an hour,

If you only lose an hour,

You'd just be late

And if you gain an hour,

Then you only gain another hour to wait

I read it in the paper,

The paper said the times had changed

But if you only lose an hour

Or if you only gain an hour it feels the same

I know I'll never have more

Than what you gave

I know I'll never have more

Than I gave away

If you try to make it black and white

You try and make it black and white

You lose all of the colour from the page

If you try to make it black and white

You try and make it black and white

You lose the colour and end up grey

So I had to blow it all

I had to blow it all

I had to give it all away
