Oh my love I am afire
And I don't know if you can help me
Oh my love I am afire
And I don't know if you can reach me
Is it because I won't release the past?
Is it because I won't forgive?
And wear the former like a leaden sash?
And drink the latter from a sieve?
Called my heart to open wide
Though I don't think it recognized me
Called my heart to open wide
You think that it could now despise me?
What if I said, Hey. It is me. I'm back?
That I could use a little help
And that I'm willing to be free at last
Although I know that you can tell
That I am never gonna say, Oh well
Is it because I won't release the past?
Is it because I won't forgive?
And wear the former like a leaden sash?
And drink the latter from a sieve?
What if I said, Hey. It is me. I'm back?
And, I could use a little help
And that, I'm willing to be free at last
As long as I don't
Have to say, Oh well
You know I won't say oh well
