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?
