lyrics

The Only Thing

Try and try to breathe
All I know is what I’ve seen
You say that it’s no good
I think you’ve misunderstood

You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
These days

I know all things must pass
And flags are at half mast
Tell me what I need to know
Take your time we’ll take it slow

You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense

On and on until we reach the ground
It’s funny how we all need somebody
On and on until we’re finally found
I don’t know how to make it up to you

You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
You’re the only thing that makes sense
To me
