Lyrics
Used To Be Yours
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.
You can't lay your hands upon what used to be yours
(Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
Harder to let go, for fear of moving on
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
So incapable of being alone
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
So incapable of making a home
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
I never saw what makes me who I am, or who I will be
Better not to know what goes on behind faces we choose to see
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
So incapable of being alone
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
So incapable of making a home
Oooh-oo-oo-oooh
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
(So incapable of being alone)
Oooh-oo-oo-oooh
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
(So incapable of making a home)
Oooh-oo-oo-oooh
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
Oooh-oo-oo-oooh
Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh
Alone, with the hope in your eyes
Pacified by my lies
I land back in your arms
But I've never felt so alone
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of? (Oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
So incapable of being alone (oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of? (Oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
So incapable of making a home (oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
Alone (oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
(Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
A-alone (oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
(Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
A-alone (oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
(Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
A-alone (oooh-oo-oo-oooh)
(Oooh-ooh, oooh-ooh)
