One For You
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.
Rumous telling me you are mourning
And you haven't slept for several days.
You?ve been turning inside out looking for reasons
And your black sorry eyes made you pale.
And you couldn't catch them
You couldn't be there.
You couldn't help them at all,
And it was cold.
If we say that there is something above the mountains
If we say that there is something we can?t see.
Promise you will never believe me
Cause I guess I'm just trying to make it easy
And you couldn't catch them
You couldn't be there.
You couldn't help them at all,
And it was cold.
Everybody was laughing when they found us
One for you and one for me.
Then they let us go to hunt us down again
And still you refuse to see
Why everything has to stay ugly
Rumous telling me you are mourning
And you haven't slept for several days.
You've been turning inside out looking for reasons
And your black sorry eyes made you pale.
