lyrics

As I look up to the sky tonight oh it's blue, yeah it's blue.
And I don't know why you do the things you do.
Well I know you won't make your move.
With no lights its cold and these bones can barely feel.

What you've done to me, You know that I can see.
The lovely way you wake up and you breathe.
To the ones you loved, The ones you've lost.
Come back girl.

You can't tell me that I'm wrong,
When it only takes so long.
Before I forget the way that love escapes my heart.
A lonely man once said,
You can forgive but not forget.
So I'll lead a hand and make my way through the snow,
Girl I won't let you go.

Do you feel royal like queen?
Because I feel honored as your king.
So take these wings and make your way to the shore.
With every breath you take it leaves me wanting more.

You can't tell me that I'm wrong,
When it only takes so long.
Before I forget the way that love escapes my heart.
A lonely man once said,
You can forgive but not forget.
So I'll lead a hand and make my way through the snow,
Girl I won't let you go.

I've washed away the love inside,
The brightest part of you and I will float away.
Wake up from the flood, the damage has been done.

It's all he knows,
And I know she don't.
I will never love again.

I've been dreaming of you for days on end.
In the future if I see you, I am not your friend.
I will never love again.
