The Difference Lyrics

My mama she raised me as still as the mountain,

Taught me to be both the fire and the spark,

To light my own way through the wild wild world,

And not be afraid of the dark.

But came a time one bright bright morning,

Your shine crept in before I knew.

Got too used to the daylight,

Now nothing but the sun will do.

No, nothing but the sun will do.

I always knew the difference between

The coda and the song.

But I can never tell when it's holding on,

Or holding on too long.

Yeah, I can never tell when it's holding on,

Or holding on too long.

Cheer up now, the storm is breaking,

And soon the wind will dry your eyes.

If I leave you on a sunny morning,

It's not because you're not on my mind.

It's not because you're not on my mind.

I thought I knew the difference between

Lonely and alone.

But darling, I don't know when it's being in love

Or not being able to let go.

Yeah, darling, I don't know when it's being in love

Or not being able to let go.
