Once
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.
Remember when you were the sea I sailed
The harbor where I’d never sail away
The home of my truly grace
The part of us that sound so great
If only when it turn apart you feel it
But life ain't easy and then you just can't heal
And I don't even realize I came
Where good intentions are not the same
When I see where I’m going to
Don't you think it was better when you
Just had to be all around
Then no harm would just throw me down
Now I see how once it was so right
To live with a hope, not a fear in sight
Every word I say
Every word I write
Would make more sense if I were impolite
Like once I did, but only for a while
Trying to live happily and not to think about
Back then to what was mine
Plenty memories and miss my child time
When I see where I’m going to
Don't you think it was better when you
Just had to be all around
Then no harm would just throw me down
Can't you see I’m waiting on queue?
To get back my lost time through
And retrieve things like a first gasp
Lost inside a mind who once flew
Change not who I am
