Basil Lyrics by Jeremy Loops

Trading Change

0

[Verse 1]
And he knows it's gone
Don't wait for another
Fallin', he goes
And he cries all night
Slowly, he thinks
Can't wait for another
Tearin' in his soul
He screams inside
[Pre-Chorus 1]
He says I'm only
And while I've gone away, only
Every single day, lonely
Well I can't be so strong, why don't you let me go?
I've been in weakness and I'm hungry
It's why I've gone away, only
Every single day, lonely
Well I can't run away, why don't you let me go?
[Chorus]
Say, I, I know
I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on my way
To find my own
Hey, I, I know
I know I'm on, I'm on, I'm on my way
To find my own
Far away...
[Verse 2]
Well I will wait for, mm
Why don't you stick around
Wind your windows down
'Cause it's a hard place, in a hard town
Sometimes I pretend that I can hear his words at all
But they echo in my sleep
And it doesn't help me keep
From feelin' like I could change something for him
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I cried, I said, I'm only
I'm one man here today, I'm only
It might never go your way, and only
Time will have its way, why don't you let me go?
He said I'm tired and I'm hungry
Every single day I'm lonely
My world is cruel today and only
If I could run away, why don't you let me go?
[Chorus]
I will wait for...
[Chorus] x2
[Outro]
I will wait for...
