Only number one left

Edward Snow 1989 (Ky)



You are the only number one left
You are amazing and fresh to death
We've waited so long for this
We've fought for our lives through death
We fought for what we have and reasons why
We set it up for life after we die
But yet we stumble over the truth
As we wipe tears from our eyes
But just remember the reason is you
The smile on my face is true
Yet the hate in my heart is still there
None of which is directed toward you.
You are the only number one left
You are amazing and fresh to death
We've waited so long for this
We fought for our lives through death
Let's keep going and keep moving
Let show emotions and keep grooving
Let's dance our lives away
Let's be great company every everlasting day!
