"Only You" lyrics
"Only You"
I have been living a life of a sad lost soul
With a head full of guilt and pain
Like a messenger carrying bad news home
I was torn between the loss and the gain
Sometimes I thought survival
Was only a hopeless compromise
Many times I felt like quitting
Then I saw you, dancing like a fire
Only you, as bright as any sun
And me, I was looking for something for so long then
Only you came to me
I had been travelling lonely from town to town
On a road to find eternal youth
I've been hiding my eyes from my life going numb
I was afraid to have to deal with the truth
No message in the Bible, no, no
No flash of lightning in the sky
No compromise or pity
Only you, dancing like a fire
Only you, as bright as any sun
And me, I was looking for something for so long then
Only you came to me
I'd been falling apart since who knows when
I didn't know who to thank or blame
All the comforting messages, ten by ten
They said the bottle'll bring eternal shame
No symbols in the bible, no, no
No bolts of thunder in the sky
No sentimental pity
Only you, dancing like a fire
Only you, as bright as any sun
And me, I was looking for something for so long then
Only you came to me

But you come back to haunt my memory
I lie awake and think of you and how it used to be
Oh my love don't give up on me.
