Lyrics
One X 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.
Have you ever been so down
every time you looked aroun
despair is like a silently cloud beside you
well centuries fly and decades pass
buildings fall and mountains last
today is not to give you
but to guide you
But you can't look
what is done is done
and the time that you spent on yesterday
today is halfway gone
and we learn to live our days one by one
Have you ever loved so hard
you opened up and dropped your guard
and fell to earth your feelings burned and branded
well love is like a lady's song
takes you in and leads you on
and in the morning leaves you high and stranded
But you can't look
what is done is done
and the time that you spent on yesterday
today is halfway gone
and we learn to live our days one by one
[interlude]
[repeat chorus]
