is this just a trick to procreate?
Verse 2
the dawn approach we'll arrive at the shore
and the boat that we boarded will unboard us all
there we will part, to our homes we return
i was bittersweet....to have someone to yearn
Chorus 2 (same chords as first)
for i don't know what to do
by your side i will lie awake
tell me love isn't true
is this just a trick to procreate?
