Here Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You wait for the tears to fall but they won't
You think you should know what to say but you don't
Here at the break of day
The world moving on its way
Without her

[Verse 2]
You're sitting there staring into the distance
Like you're putting up some kind of resistance
But you barely see the dawn
It's like this river that you're on
Here where the sorrows flow
And all you will never know about her
Here
You're here

[Verse 3]
The city waking up off in the distance
They're all working on some other existence
But you don't quite seem to care
It's like you know they're not going anywhere
Here where the sorrows flow
Here where the questions grow
And all you will never know about her
[Verse 4]
You wait for the tears to fall but they won't
You think you should know what to say but you don't
Here at the break of dawn
The world moving on
Without her

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
