Lyrics
Yes, I understand that every life must end, aw-huh,
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw-huh,
Oh I’m a lucky man, to count on both hands
The ones I love,
Some folks just have one,
Yeah, others, they’ve got none, huh-uh
Stay with me,
Let’s just breathe.
Practiced are my sins,
Never gonna let me win, aw-huh,
Under everything, just another human being, aw-huh,
Yeah, I don’t wanna hurt her, there’s so much in this world
To make me believe.
Stay with me,
You’re all I see.
Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn’t I’m a fool you see,
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean.
I wonder everyday
As I look upon your face, aw-huh,
Everything you gave
And nothing you would take, aw huh
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave
Did I say that I need you?
Oh, did I say that I want you?
Or if I didn’t I’m a fool you see,
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean, ah
Nothing you would take,
Everything you gave.
Love you till I die,
Meet you on the other side.
