Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pledge your faith, my heart, it breaks
Struggle to renew
Blurry mind, so hypnotized
Fast enough, who?
[Instrumental]
Wonder
Where you are
Tristessa
[Instrumental]
Soul takes soul as eye take eye
I will wait for you
What you believe, you’ll wish to receive
Won’t believe you
You-hoo
[Chorus]
Hang on
To your life
Tristessa
[Instrumental]
I love you true
Surely, I do
I love you true
Surely, I do
Surely, I do
Surely, I do (No)
[Instrumental]
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 you
Tristessa
