Soma
Xixa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So long
You are so gone
The ground is
Slowly sinking
Soma, you're so sweet love
Oh Soma, It's been a long time
And I've had enough of what your doing
And I've had some time to do the thinking
And I feel it be best that I go
So long
You were so gone
The sky is
Slowly caving in
Oh Soma, make me forget life
Oh Soma, you're sweet-talkin' to me
And I've had enough of what your doing
And I've had some time upon reflection
And I feel it be best that I go
I feel it be best that I go
I've fallen so low
Falling from the atmosphere
Falling farther though we're near
Round and round and round it goes
Where we're stopping no one knows
Round and round and round and round
Round and round and round and round
We are falling from the atmosphere
Feeling farther though it's clear
Round and round and round it goes
Where we're stopping no one knows
Round and round and round and round
Round and round and round and round
