I’ve Seen It Sheet Music Olivia Dean

I’ve seen it last for thirty years
Seen it bloom then end in tears
I’ve seen it after school and in the parkSat right across me on the tube
I’ve seen it miss a stop or two
I’ve seen it trying not to fall apart

I’ve heard it laced in every song
And still the words all come out wrong
It doesn’t always answer when you call

Brings out the worst
Brings out the best
I understand it less and less
I guess I’m not supposed to know it all

I’ve seen it dance with friends around the table
In Eleanor, Rosie and Louise
And it makes me cry to think that I am able
To give it back the way it gives to me

I’ve seen it grow old and forget
Until it’s just a silhouette
‘Til someone picks it up and sends it on

I’ve seen the films
I’ve read the books
My mum and dad, they got me hooked
The fairytale, the search goes on and on

The more you look
The more you find
It’s all around you all the time
Catches your eye, you blink and then it’s gone

Brings out the worst
Brings out the best
I know it’s somewhere in my chest
I guess it’s been inside me all along
