Only Songs - The Wild Reeds

Do you remember '95?

And how good it felt to be alive

When the world, when the world was small

I didn’t fear, I didn’t fear it at all

Have you ever had a love that’s bigger than you

Oh, how you know it when it’s true

I’ve had a love, I’ve had a love like that

But it always seems to slip through my hands

'Cause the only thing that saves me

Are the songs I sing, Baby

You can’t save me from anything

I’ve got pictures on my walls of all the things

That I think will bring me back my sanity

Like Paddy and my rosary

Like the ocean and the Virgin Mary

'Cause the only thing that saves me

Are the songs I sing, Baby

You can’t save me from anything

Not from my twisted mind nor wasted time

From Heartache or all my mistakes

Not from the world and its dark way

'Cause it’s not what you got

That will get you to God

No, it’s not what you thought

That will get you to God

No, it’s not what you got

That will get you to God

Oh, it’s not what you got

That will get…

'Cause the only thing that saves me

Are the songs I sing, Baby

You can’t save me from anything

Not from my twisted mind nor wasted time

From Heartache or all my mistakes

Not from the world and its dark way
