The Only Thing to Do Songtext
von Bella Hardy

I′ve been travelling,
I've been thinking I′ve been flying, driving,
Training I've been reading, I've been gazing
I can′t see what I′ve been faking I'm too
Tired and I′m fading projecting and forsaking
I've been drinking wine I′ve been singing all the time Scared myself
Half blind with the shadows in my mind I've been running running
Running I′ve been trying to make you rhyme But you won't stand still
So should I hide a broken heart?
Or let the world tear me apart again?
They say the gods will have their way Well
Surely if that's true, the only thing to do is love


I′ve asked the tall trees,
And the coldest seas I′ve asked the hot dust
Dragged from short grass by the summer breeze
All the new sounds felt like old sounds Felt like
Kisses in a whisper in a rain of silver birch leaves
I've been drinking wine I′ve been playing all the time Danced with
Strangers on the run Danced with the shadows in my mind I've been
Writing writing writing different men
In every line But they won′t stand still
So should I hide a broken heart?
Or let the world tear me apart again?
They say the gods will have their way Well
Surely if that's true, the only thing to do is
Hide a broken heart And let the world tear me apart again They say
Each dog will have it′s day Well surely
If that's true, the only thing to do is love

So I'm sending my love back where your days are ending and mine are
Just beginning I′m sending my love back to the city
Sending my love back to the hills Sending my love home

There′s nothing keeping me on track except the tree upon my back
Except the skyline in my heart With every word so neatly placed
With every demon found and faced should ever lesson be unlearnt?

Or should I hide a broken heart?
And let the world tear me apart again?
They say the gods will have their way Well
Surely if that's true, the only thing to do is
Hide a broken heart And let the world tear me apart again They say
Each dog will have it′s day Well surely
If that's true, the only thing to do is love
