Come What May
Mountains in the sea Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Troubled times
Too many lies
Too many eyes
Shaded from the truth
What does it take
What's at stake
What can we make
Breaking all the rules
Come what may
Darker days
For always
I'm with you
Things they change
Colors fade
But for always
I'm with you
Enemies surround
A roaring sound
And I'll be found
Holding onto you
A rebel heart
We have to start
Can't fall apart
In the afternoon
Come what may
Darker days
For always
I'm with you
Things they change
Colors fade
But for always
I'm with you
La-di-da-di-da-di-da
La-di-da-di-da-di-da
Ooh
Ooh
Come what may
Darker days
For always
I'm with you
Things they change
Colors fade
But for always
I'm with you
Come what may
Darker days




For always
I'm with you
