The Only Thing
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.
An overdose inside my soul
I try so hard to let it go
But you're the only thing that makes me feel
Let's steal time and stay forever
And if we bleed we bleed together
Awake and find ourselves dreaming again
[Pre-Chorus]
And if I had one day to choose
I'd spend it forever, I'd spend it with you
[Chorus x2]
'Cause the only thing you took away
Was the one thing I needed most
The only thing you took away was you
We could wait until tomorrow
To return the love that's borrowed
And pretend everything stays the same
And if I had all the answers
I'd take away all your cancer
And I'd make you feel beautiful again
[Pre-Chorus + Chorus (x4)]
