Lyrics
In a Lifetime
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.
Hard to tell or recognise a sign
To see me through, a warning sign
First the thunder
Satisfied
If the past, it will not lie
Then the storm, torn assunder
The future you and i get blown away
In the storm
In a lifetime
In a lifetime
And as the rain it falls, begin again
As the storm breaks through
Heavy in my heart
Believe the light in you
So the light shines in you
Without colour, faded and worn
Torn assunder in the storm
Unless the sound has faded from your soul
Unless it dissapears
First the thunder
Selfish storm
Then the storm
Hold on the inside
Torn assunder
One life
In the storm
In a lifetime
In a lifetime
In a lifetime
In a lifetime
