- ♫ I’ve learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time ♫ - ♫ Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find You and I collide ♫ - ♫ I’d go hungry; I’d go black and blue
And I’d go crawling down the avenue
No, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do
To make you feel my love ♫ - Every Sunday, share what you’re reading online and offline with #sundayread. 11:50:06
- ♫ Before you can bridge the gulf between
And embrace him in your arms
Bang bang bang
He’ll shoot you down ♫ - ♫ And anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need something to believe in ♫ - ♫ Oh no darling
No wind, no rain
Or winters cold can stop me baby, na na baby
‘Cause you are my goal
If you’re ever in trouble
I’ll be there on the double ♫ - ♫ One flight down
There’s a song on low
And it’s been there playing all along
Now you know
Now you know ♫ - ♫ I watch you fight your demon
Don’t know when to step in
You wrestle with your angel
‘Cause you hate to let it win ♫ - ♫ Why can’t I breathe whenever I think about you?
Why can’t I speak whenever I talk about you?
It’s inevitable, it’s a fact that we’re gonna get down to it ♫ - From the archive: Addictive content https://t.co/vtB8ygA7Sa 21:00:10
- ♫ Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Watch the jungle when it’s wet with rain
Just remember till you’re home again
You belong to me ♫https://buff.ly/2VlkDbF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=murYvyEzpUM 21:15:03
