One Second
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.
When something dies
Or comes to life
When water shines in yellow light
When something moves
Inside a tree
I wish you saw things just like me
When I walk around
Lost and found
And I feel my feet as they touch the ground
And I'm happy just to be right there
I wish that I could somehow share
The thing my stomach does when I think of us
What if we had one second to be?
Just like the other what would we see?
What if you knew exactly what you are to me?
Would you be terribly surprised?
To see who I am in my actual size
A second is short, but more then enough
You would feel loved, you would feel loved
What you hear, when music sings
What makes you sad, what sadness brings
Do you feel empty when you cry?
If I could only find out why you fear the things you fear
And make it disappear
What if we had one second to be?
Just like the other what would we see?
What if you knew exactly what you are to me?
Would you be terribly surprised?
To see who I am in my actual size
A second is short, but more then enough
You would feel loved, you would feel loved
What if we had one second to be?
Just like the other what would we see?
What if you knew exactly what you are to me?
Would you be terribly surprised?
To see who I am in my actual size
A second is short, but more then enough
You would feel loved, you would feel loved
You would feel loved, you would feel loved
You would feel loved, you would feel loved
