lyrics

Don't walk away, I can't keep up with you.
There are so many things I've been wishing I could tell you.
I'm dying to know where your head's been at lately,
'cause I know you're not yourself, and it's killing me.

You were always good at finding beauty in the simple things,
like the raindrops on the windscreen and the bright lights in the city.
Now day by day you're haunted by these thoughts again,
over the last two years you've slowly but surely slipped away.

I remember you telling me everything would be okay.
Now the tables are turned, it's my time to do the same.
I know my words aren't enough to get through to you,
but I wrote this song in hope you'll know it's about you.

You were always good at finding beauty in the simple things,
like the raindrops on the windscreen and the bright lights in the city.
Now day by day you're haunted by these thoughts again,
over the last two years you've slowly but surely slipped away.

The hardest part in all of this is that you'll never want to be saved.
And we're all here with our arms out, just waiting for the day.

The hardest part in all of this, you can't see you're not alone.
You've never been alone. You'll never be alone.

You were always good at finding beauty in the simple things,
like the raindrops on the windscreen and the bright lights in the city.
Now day by day you're haunted by these thoughts again,
over the last two years you've slowly but surely slipped away.
