lyrics
To Love Something
by Pearla
When I find myself
Waiting for you
I think of other things
I could set my heart to
Knife through the tomato
White sky flower bud
Warm bread and bridges
But nothing is enough
‘Cause when I’m in your arms time becomes a song
I think to love something is the only way to go on
Everyday’s a separation
Takes a hard one to realize that
All you ever really have is your own heart
When I find myself
Reaching for what was
It tricks me that I’m empty
Without its very touch
But oh, it’s such a lie
Hold in your heart what you want
It's not about what loves you
It’s what you yourself can love
And when I’m in your arms time becomes a song
I think to love something is the only way to go on
That’s a fact I often do forget
That all you ever really have is your own heart
To count on
Knife through the tomato
White sky flower bud
Warm bread and bridges
Bustelo brewed to mud
Leaving the party
Joanna Newsom
My shirt with the bears on it
Talking with you and listening
I love swimming in the water
Loved it since I was a little kid
I love my dog who is alive
I love my dogs in heaven
Being in your arms
Being out of your arms
I can do both because
The love stays in my heart
I got a reason to
Keep going on
And while I wait for you
I sing myself this song
I sing myself this song
I sing myself this song
I sing myself this song
I sing myself this song
