Prelude to a Kiss Lyrics

[Intro]
Hmm
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hmmm, hmmm

[Verse]
Sometimes I feel like I don't belong anywhere
And it's gonna take so long for me to get somewhere
Sometimes I feel so heavy hearted
But I can't explain 'cause I'm so guarded
But that's a lonely road to travel
And a heavy load to bear
And it's a long, long way to heaven
But I gotta get there
Can you send an angel?
Can you send me an angel
To guide me?
Hmmm

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 [?]
