Never been one to write my story
Out for the world to see
Never been good with names or faces
That should have meant something to me
It takes a special kind of feeling
The sound of a crucial voice
To burn my memory
Like yours does
Didn't give myself a lot to fight for
The dark had an easy win
Didn't stand my ground for nothing
Living in my sin
Then your light hit me
Burned on my face
Every inch of joy
Was worth the pain
And I don't need a chorus
To make you stick inside my head
You're buried there forever
Even when I'm long gone and dead
I'll carry you in my heart
Even if this ship goes down
There's only one of you around
I can't list off the reasons
I want you by my side
It's just too complicated
And I won't say it right
So I hope you know I love ya
And I'll always be here
This life ain't right without you
My dear
And I don't need a chorus
To make you stick inside my head
You're buried there forever
Even when I'm long gone and dead
I'll carry you in my heart
Even if this ship goes down
There's only one of you around
There's only one of you
