Lyrics

Lostboy

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.

It was so odd

The way we came about

The way we locked our horns

We fell apart

And glued our hearts together

It was so fun

The way you laughed at me

'Cos everything I said

it always came out wrong

And we fell asleep

'Cos there's nothing left to do

And I could not keep what's inside

I had to show to you

I was a lostboy that was found

Drowning underwater

Smothered by the pressure

I was a lost toy now I'm found

You patched me back together

Sewing up the leather on my arms

On my arms

It was you and only me

It was so hard,

To see you shivering

To see you frostig up

So we locked our arms

and shared the warmth together

It was so dark

But you just shrugged it off

You turned to me and said

thank God we're going home

And we fell asleep

'Cos there's nowhere else to go

And I could not keep what's inside

I had to let you know

It was you and only me

Could you

Suffer

Waiting

Longer

Lonely

For me

We can make our way through the mire

It was you and only me
