So far in my life Clouds have blocked the sun How do you love, how do you love someone? How do you love someone And make it last? How do you love someone (Love someone) Without tripping on the past? So far in my life Clouds have blocked the sun How do you love, how do you love someone? How do you love, how do you love someone, someone
