Tristessa

LyricsInformation
Pledged your faith
My heart embraced
Struggle to renew
Blurry mind
So hypnotized
Fast enough who
Wonder where you are
Tristessa
Soul takes soul
As I take eye
I will wait for you
What you believe
You'll wish to receive
I won't believe in you
Hang on to your life
Tristessa
I love you true
Surely I do
I love you true
Surely I do
Surely I do
Surely I do
do, do, do, do
Do you ever wake up and find yourself alone?
Do you ever wake up far from home?
What you believe
You'll wish to receive
I won't believe in you
Tristessa
