I saw the signs And took my chances I pulled the vines And broke the branches Your heart was mine I thought that I could hold you Steady, steady In the madness Watered the roots that you had planted Deep in my heart I thought that I could hold you Steady, steady Falling from the highest height And nothing would have made us ready As the light was washing from my eyes I swore that I could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I swore that I could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I can't hold you I can't hold you Now I know you're not the one for me I swore that I could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I can't hold you I can't hold you I wanted to heal The Earth around you Seasons had changed I never left you So why did we freeze Out in the sun in silence Trying was trying Took my chances Lost in the darkened circumstances Carried the weight Until it was too heavy, heavy, heavy Falling from the highest height And nothing would have made us ready As the light was washing from my eyes I swore that i could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I swore that I could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I can't hold you I can't hold you Now I know you're not the one for me I swore that I could hold you steady Now I know you're not the one for me I can't hold you I can't hold you Tried to mend what's broken Walked the wire with dignity As my eyes are looking into the sun I'm facing a new reality Tried to mend what's broken Walked the wire with dignity As my eyes are looking into the sun I'm facing a new reality Tried to mend what's broken Walked the wire with dignity As my eyes are looking into the sun I'm facing a new reality
