ONCEVOICELESS - Jade Rays.

{Verse 1}
Gather around now, so I can tell you the story
It’s a little bit of a long one but that's ok, it's a good one
You have my word like a good book, son
Halfway through, you will forget about how long it's been
Just like him learning life lessons the hard way
One knock at a time
Picked and poked to death for everything that made him different
And nicknamed team captain of the weird kids
Fist fights with the mean kids on a weekly basis
He thought about his dad’s Smith and Wesson last time it happened
Calculating five against one, how she holds six

{Hook}
A feeling that you can't forget
And minutes are like counting down from 10
Unspokеn stories on a new page, nеw feelings, bringing warmth to a cold place
Cloudy weather for what seems like forever
Poking holes in the ceiling trying to let the light in
Memories come attached to emotions
And even when skies are grey
He can still remember what it feels like standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight, standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight

{Verse 2}
And Ray had one real friend
Who probably turned out to be their saviour
Hanging out at the old swing set at the little park on the corner
Growing up,he had always been fond of
He swears he can still hear the sound of the chain swing back and forth
Like the love that he shared with a girl, her name was Jade Rays
Her green eyes gave it away, before she could say
And Ray was tongue-tied and half-blind at the same time
With how bright she shined in the middle of the daytime
And if he could, he knows exactly what he would wish for
If he had a magic genie in a bottle

{Hook}
A feeling that you can't forget
And minutes are like counting down from 10
Unspoken stories on a new page, new feelings, bringing warmth to a cold place
Cloudy weather for what seems like forever
Poking holes in the ceiling trying to let the light in
Memories come attached to emotions
And even when skies are grey
He can still remember what it feels like standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight, standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight

{Verse 3}
His first wish would have been to skip over tomorrow
A second, a little more time that he could borrow
Third wish, never have to see Jade Rays go (Jade Rays go)
He spent the whole summer with Jade Rays
He said “I'm happy to pay babe”, summer loving, summer 2008
It was half-price for a love
That was worth more than all the riches in the world, then some
And time flies when you’re living it up and goodbyes are never easy
The summer's coming to an ending
A few more months is not enough, it's gonna take a lifetime and then some
She was the only one that showed him love

{Hook}
A feeling that you can't forget
And minutes are like counting down from 10
Unspoken stories on a new page, new feelings, bringing warmth to a cold place
Cloudy weather for what seems like forever
Poking holes in the ceiling trying to let the light in
Memories come attached to emotions
And even when skies are grey
He can still remember what it feels like standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight, standing in the sunlight
Standing in the sunlight

{Outro}
Standing in the sunlight, standing in the sunlight
Jade Rays shined so bright from that moment
That he remembered what it feels like standing in the sunlight
A feeling that you can't forget
