about
The second official demo from the Derek Nelson Band - Make Believe
lyrics
Baby if love was an ocean
I'd be a ship in the sand
And maybe I should stop hoping
And learn to sail it on land
It takes a bad day to teach you
That you were ever that good
And god knows I'm not done learning
God knows I'm misunderstood
Let's just make believe
We're not going under
Slow and steady thunder
Is all I need
Let's just make believe
We're not going nowhere
If we are I don't care
Just stay with me
If you could spoil the ending
With just the lines on my hands
Tell me the time I'd be spending
Tell me it's not up to chance
I know I'd still want you with me
I'd throw my hands in the fire
A fate with you is worth burning
I'll wear the marks of desire
Let's just make believe
We're not going under
Slow and steady thunder
Is all I need
Let's just make believe
We're not going nowhere
If we are I don't care
Just stay with me
