Lyrics
25
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.
A fetish rosey cheeked is left alone
There is no justice
Yeah we know this from when we're young
The smoke dances in the mirror out of the gun
And she lost her sadness
In the madness she has to run
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tears will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye
She doesn't notice
As the disguises enter the room
The look of the the flower
The casual killer lights up the gloom
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tears will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tears will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
