There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
There's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt It's still a little harder to say what's going on There's still a little bit of your ghost, your weakness There's still a little bit of your face, I haven't kissed You step a little closer each day That I can't see what's going on Stones taught me to fly Love, it taught me to lie Life, it taught me to die So it's not hard to fall When you float like a cannonball There's still a little bit of your song in my ear There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear You step a little closer to me So close that I can't see what's going on Stones taught me to fly Love, it taught me to lie Life, it taught me to die So it's not hard to fall When you float like a cannon- Stones taught me to fly Love, it taught me to cry So come on courage Teach me to be shy 'Cause it's not hard to fall And I don't wanna scare her It's not hard to fall And I don't wanna lose It's not hard to grow When you know that you just don't know |

1,240 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Brilliant, just brilliant. It just shows that you don't need autotune or fancy sound effects or anything to make an INCREDIBLE song, he just does it simple and it comes out beautifully and perfectly each time. Plus his voice is amazing as well! This beats out Rihanna, Ke$ha, and many others any day =) |
