Lyrics

Have you never been happy just to hear your song? 
Have you never let someone else be strong? 

There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view 
I was like you 
Now I don't mean to make you frown 
No, I just want you to slow down 

Have you never been mellow? 
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you? 
Have you never been happy just to hear your song? 
Have you never let someone else be strong? 

Have you never been mellow?
