Never Enough
Rebecca Lavelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was never time enough
I can't breath
It's too hard to think of love
I can't breath, I can't breath

Can't let my words betray
I won't talk, I won't talk
Words will never be the way
I won't talk, won't talk

Many fears, many dreams
Many roads out there
Hide the pain behind the smile
Behind the tears

You burn like fire
Burn like ice
Your heart tears, your heart tears
You be strong and hold it in
But your heart still cares

Many fears and many dreams
Many roads out there
Hide the pain behind the smile
Till there are no more tears

Many fears and many dreams
Many roads out there
Hide the pain behind the smile
Till there are no more tears

There was never time enough
I can't breath
It's too hard to think of love
I can't breath, I can't breath

Many fears and many dreams
Many roads out there
Hide the pain behind the smile
Till there are no more tears

Many fears and many dreams
Many roads out there
Hide the pain behind the smile
Till there are no more tears





There was never time enough......
