Lyrics Only a Lifetime - Paper Aeroplanes

Only a Lifetime

It’s only a single bed, somewhere to clear your head.
No reason to re-offend, no answers and no regrets.
You were the faith I’d almost had
Always the first to fly the flag
And you haunt the years I need the most
The fate, the fear, The Holy Ghost of us
It’s only a life time.
Can I unlearn the things I know?
Full of bad seeds I left to grow.
All the thoughts running through my head and the dead ends to which the lead.
You were the faith I’d almost had
Always the first to fly the flag
Will you haunt the years I need the most
The fate, the fear, The Holy Ghost of us
It’s only a life time.
As we lean into this refrain, finding solace in what remains.
Gather life from the dark room floor and a reason to hope for more.
As you lean into this refrain, find some solace in what remains.
Gather life from the forest floor and a reason to hope for more.
You were the faith I’d almost had
Always the first to fly the flag
And you haunt the years I need the most
The fate, the fear, The Holy Ghost of us
It’s only a life time.
