| And I thought that we were done
|
| I was so scared to death
|
| That I’d never get another chance
|
| To share the same breath
|
| With the girl in Nebraska
|
| That turned me around
|
| The day that I met you
|
| Was the day that I found
|
| A reason to live
|
| A reason to breathe
|
| You made me forget
|
| Every insecurity
|
| That I’d built up inside
|
| Cause I just couldn’t take it
|
| I thought that I could
|
| But I was sadly mistaken
|
| Now it’s your choice
|
| You know that I’m crossing my fingers
|
| That you’ll give me a chance
|
| Even though the fear lingers
|
| Cause he left you a scar
|
| That was deep enough to see
|
| And I hate that because of him
|
| You’re doing this to me
|
| So baby drop off the act
|
| And drop down your guard
|
| I made you the promise
|
| That I won’t break your heart
|
| And when the sun starts to rise
|
| And the spark starts between us
|
| You can look in my eyes
|
| And you’ll know that I mean it
|
| Oh… oh…
|
| I swear that I’ll mean it…
|
| Oh… oh…
|
| I swear that I’ll mean it
|
| I’m not leaving til you tell me
|
| That we’re meant to be
|
| Because the feeling’s got me restless
|
| It’s been weeks since I could sleep
|
| I’ve been staring at the ceiling
|
| And counting down the days
|
| Until the moment that you finally
|
| Open up to me
|
| I’ve been taking shit for granted
|
| Because it’s hard to care
|
| About the other things in life
|
| When I just wish that you were there
|
| So baby stop the masquerade
|
| I’ll give you time to breathe
|
| The only thing I ask for in return is that you
|
| Open up to me…
|
| Is that you open up to me…
|
| Is that you open up to me…
|
| Is that you open up to me…
|
| Is that you open up to me…
|
| And I’d never missed you more
|
| Than on the day I thought I lost you
|
| It fucked me up so badly
|
| Cause I thought for sure I’d caught you
|
| And my sentences were running like
|
| They had no place to go
|
| They haven’t been the same since,
|
| God dammit, I don’t know
|
| But what I know is that you feel it
|
| Cause I can feel it to
|
| It’s like the sky is falling down
|
| And there is nothing you can do
|
| Or like your trapped inside a box
|
| And no one’s got the key
|
| I’ve come to make the rescue
|
| If you would only let me…
|
| Oh… oh…
|
| If you would only let me…
|
| Oh… oh…
|
| If you would only let me…
|
| I’m not leaving til you tell me
|
| That we’re meant to be
|
| Because the feeling’s got me restless
|
| It’s been weeks since I could sleep
|
| I’ve been staring at the ceiling
|
| And counting down the days
|
| Until the moment that you finally
|
| Open up to me
|
| I’ve been taking shit for granted
|
| Because it’s hard to care
|
| About the other things in life
|
| When I just wish that you were there
|
| So baby stop the masquerade
|
| I’ll give you time to breathe
|
| The only thing I ask for in return is that you
|
| Open up to me…
|
| Me and you are the only thing I see…
|
| Me and you are the only thing I see…
|
| I’m not leaving til you tell me
|
| That we’re meant to be
|
| Because the feeling’s got me restless
|
| It’s been weeks since I could sleep
|
| I’ve been staring at the ceiling
|
| And counting down the days
|
| Until the moment that you finally
|
| Open up to me
|
| I’ve been taking shit for granted
|
| Because it’s hard to care
|
| About the other things in life
|
| When I just want you there
|
| So baby stop the masquerade
|
| I’ll give you time to breathe
|
| The only thing I ask for in return is that you
|
| Open up to me… |
