Lyrics

For You

Verse 1:
It's been a long time coming
Hidden behind the cellar door
You can wear my heart for the trip
Because I don't want you getting cold

Chorus:
This is the last time I can find the chords
To express my love for you

Verse 2:
It's been a long time coming
Hidden behind the cellar door
You can wear my heart for the trip
Because I don't need you anymore

Chorus

Bridge:
Everybody take yourself away

Chorus
