Lyrics
Death
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.
Could you be someone I could cling to
In moments of despair?
When the world looks temporary
Built to be repaired (built to be repaired)
And we both like the idea of
A checkered kitchen floor (checkered kitchen floor)
And dying by the ocean side
Maybe there's nothing more?
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (to every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
And I just can't, can't decide
Which is worse
The thought that you or I, might go first?
And we both like the idea of
A checkered kitchen floor (checkered kitchen floor)
And dying by the ocean side
Maybe there's nothing more?
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (to every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
The party will still be going (the party will still be going)
But we have to leave (but we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (than having to believe)
The party will still be going (the party will still be going)
But we have to leave (but we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (than having to believe)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (to every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
The party will still be going (the party will still be going)
But we have to leave (but we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (than having to believe)
The party will still be going (the party will still be going)
But we have to leave (but we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (than having to believe)
