Melissa Ferrick - One Of A Kind lyrics

rate me

Oh how sadness loves you

It has crawled in and covered up

And you protect it like a child

Something endangered and wild

But I've seen fear grow up

And firmly take hold

It hides inside a blanket

Man, misery is cold

Lightning does

Strike twice

People fall in love

All the time

We are not defined

By a price

'Cause everybody is

One of a kind

Oh how hatred waits

Over years without letting go

It is burrowed in and fed

And it's trying to pull you under into the deep end

But you are not on trial

So declare yourself free

And set fire to your devil

Tell him to find another tree

'Cause lightning does

Strike twice

And people fall in love

All the time

We are not defined

By a price

'Cause everybody is

Everybody is

One of a kind

So when your light's gone out

When there's no wax left

When you can't get up

Even lift your head

Stay inside the darkness

For as long as it takes

Stay till you adjust to it

Stay till you can see your hands in front of your face

Stay till you can see your hands in front of your face

Stay right there till you can see your hands in front of your face

Lightning does

Strike twice

People fall in love

All the time

Lightning does

Strike twice

People are fallin' in love

All the time

We are not defined

By a price

'Cause everybody is

Everybody is

One of a kind
