Periscope Lyrics
It's nothing new
Like an old cartoon
Flickering on the TV
Through a periscope
I see our lives
Through my eyes
I know
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
Because I have been waiting on you
All my life
All my life
I've been frustrated and blue
I never knew
I never knew
How much I love
You
How much I love
You
The three words I head onto
I love you
Please see me through
When the world is getting me down
Beams down on us
Broken up
With all our rust
We'll let go
We'll let go
There will come a time
Looking down the line
Truth will be hard to find
But don't be afraid
Our troubles they won't
Stay the same
We'll be okay
Because I have been waiting on you
All my life
All my life
I've been frustrated and blue
I never knew
I never knew
How much I love
You
How much I love
You
All my life
All my life
I've been frustrated and blue
I never knew
I never knew
How much I love
You
How much I love
You
