I’ve been in love most of my life Less or more And I never doubted the power of it all I’m not one to cry over matters of the heart But it’s hard to resist when it’s burns from the start Maybe Beatles had it right And love is all you need But it hurts to be alive When all it does is leave When all it ever does Is leave How many days, how many hours have I spent Crying in vain, cursing in bed My heart‘s been aching, been breaking, been torn And still it keeps yearning for more Maybe Beatles had it right And love is all you need But it hurts to be alive When all it does is leave When all it ever does Is leave The books and the stories, they taught me long ago Blessed is he, who doesn’t give up hope But I don’t have much left, and what little I do Ain’t enough to find someone new Maybe Beatles had it right And love is all you need But it hurts to be alive When all it does is leave When all it ever does Is leave So I’m left in the dark, sitting down finally And if someone’s really out there, they’ll have to come to me Cuz I’m done trying my hardest, just to end up in tears It’s time for someone else to find me here Maybe Beatles had it right And all you need is love So you struggle to survive Hoping it’s enough Hoping it will be enough Lalalala lalalalalala lallalalalalala Maybe Beatles had it right And love is all you need But it hurts to be alive When all it does is leave When all it ever does Is leave When all it ever does Is leave When all it ever does Is leave

Sandman 04:19
Hit me with a truck and put me out a little while I don’t wanna die, or stay alive Let me slip into a dream, this world can’t begin to compete I’ve never really liked reality So mister Sandman please Grant me just a little sleep Oh mister sandman please I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost Oh mister sandman The snow lingers in the air, it’s barely falling at all And I linger in my bed only to stall This city I call home is still as foreign as can be Naked and exposed steel and concrete So mister Sandman please Grant me just a little sleep Oh mister sandman please I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost Oh mister sandman This overcrowded world makes my apartment seem so bare Sometimes I wonder if I’m even there The snow lingers in the air, it’s barely falling at all And I linger in my bed, only to stall So mister Sandman please Grant me just a little sleep Oh mister sandman please I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost Oh mister sandman Hit me with a truck and put me out a little while I don’t wanna die or stay alive I don’t wanna die or stay alive I don’t wanna die or stay alive
