I can try, but it hurts to breathe Until you're with me 'Cause only then can I breathe again And that should be enough for me I should be happy But we both know I never could accept defeat I messed up, and it's like a curse But what have I learned? Cause I keep making the same mistakes Tell me, how strong I need to be So those around me Never know pain, I only wanna keep them safe I'll cherish every laugh And without looking back I'll believe in love and live on And I want you to know I'll always hold you close With your scars, some new and some old And together, we'll continue down this path Though it may hurt, we both know we can't go back I can still feel in my chest a bitter pain Though it may heal, scars of sin we can't erase Darling I remember the cripplin' cost The love that I lost So long ago, but the pain remains I can't look at the vivid sky So blue and so bight When in my heart there only is a world of grey But no matter the sacrifice I would pay the price And keep believing in only this It's the color within your eyes Dazzling with such life How it reminds me of flowers on a sunny day There's things we can't control I know it in my soul But I'll trust in life and live on Like candles burning bright I wanna hold you tight As we melt away our nightmares I will be there, when the pain, it makes you numb And I'll be there till the light of morning comes And as long as you are by my side I don't care if we're against the tide Fighting off a world of waves 'Cause as one, we'll never break I'll cherish every laugh And without looking back I'll believe in love and live on And I want you to know I'll always hold you close With your scars, some new, and some old I'll cherish every laugh And without looking back I'll believe in love and live on Because if I'm with you I know that we'll pull through With a bond that can't be broken And together, we are clinging to a thread Though it may hurt, we can only look ahead But I promise, I will keep the dark at bay Yeah, I promise - I will always keep you safe Darling
