A darkened plume to stay

Not a fox found in your place

But can't you see, oh?

Maybe you were the ocean, when I was just a stone

Am
But the road is wearier
F
With that fool found in your place

And I don't wanna beg your pardon

And I don't wanna ask you why
But if I was to go my own way
Would I have to pass you by?
