Yesterday just came and went

And if today I wake up late, I won't forgive myself

They fell in love with the same thing

Let me know when the rain ends
See, all I need is you
Em G D
Ain't it special? Ain't it precious?
A Em
The time that we have
G D
When I'm laid in your bed and you tell me you lovе me
Em
Colors back in all my days

Build the structure, lеt it break
D A
As long as it's good for your brain
Em
Lessons learned is what I've gained
G
Feed your family, forget the fame

I'm doing it now for a second name
Em
Never fell for the fame thing

They fell in love with the same thing

Let me know when the rain ends
See, all I need is you

When I'm laid in your bed and you tell me you love me

When you're doing things you shouldn't be

And I lie for you
