Glorious
The Pierces(Wikinet.ir - HvP) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I found a way
Then I would make you stay
Maybe one more night if you wanna
If I found the rhyme
And I would take the time
And sing you one more line
It would go like
[Chorus]
God bless the world, it's so glorious
God bless the ones we've loved
God bless the ones we've lost
God bless the world, it's so glorious
I will never die, never die like you

If I found the boy, the one with golden eyes
You know I think I'd haunt you
And if I found the rhyme then I would take the time
And sing you one more line and it would go like

[Chorus]

I felt his hand today, across my shoulder,
I'll kneel down to pray
Say afterlife's okay,
But it got so lonely when you turned away

[Chorus]

I felt his hand today, across my shoulder,
I'll kneel down to pray
Say afterlife's okay,
But it got so lonely when you turned away

I saw his lie today, across my shoulder,
I'll kneel down to pray
I feel like hell today,
But it got so lonely when you turned away

I felt his hand today, across my shoulder,
I'll kneel down to pray
Say afterlife's okay,
But it got so lonely when you turned away




It got so lonely when you turned away
It got so lonely when you turned away

They harmonize off each other so well.

@tefilobraga

Kind of reminiscent of both Abba and the Mamas and Papas, but different... 😄 Bless the Pierce sisters.
