Brookfield North

Lyrics

One More Time (© Fredrick Brooks)

I can’t feel the sunlight
I can’t taste the rain
All I hear is that lonesome song
From love’s remains

It’s written on my body
It’s tattooed on my soul
It circles ‘round my heart
And aches in my bones

Before we say goodbye
Will you tell me you love me
One more time

I could see it in your eyes
That old familiar rage
The quiet of your broken mouth
Held words you’d never say

For here lies the story
Of a lover and a fool
The dagger and the heartbeat
With blood beneath the truth

Why do I refuse
To face this fall
When the circle of your false embrace
Still breaks my open heart

It’s written on my body
it’s tattooed on my soul
It circles ‘round my heart
And aches in my bones
