Lyrics[]
[Verse]
As much as I could, as much as I tried
I just couldn't seem to find the light
The trees for the wood, the wars left and right
Umbrellas with the rain in
I turn on the news, the news has turned off
All the people that the world forgot
The blues get the blues, but the view from the top
Is the ocean in a drop
[Chorus]
Whatever happens to
Everything that we go through
I see you got your new tattoo
I didn't know someone felt that way too
Maybe we can share the rain
Maybe we can dance again
Maybe we can make the sky turn blue
Oh, Daniel knows how to make a dream
How to make a dream come true
Oh, Daniel, could I be the one for you?
[Chorus]
Whatever happens to
Everything that we go through
I see you got your new tattoo
I didn't know someone felt that way too
Maybe we can dance again
Maybe we can share the pain
Maybe we can make the sky turn blue
Oh, Daniel knows how to make a dream
How to make a dream come true
Oh, Daniel, could I be the one for you?
