Cutting Ties

I need someone to call

You need someone to break your fall

I need someone to hold

You need someone to take control

But when I try to cut the ties

I close my eyes and drop the knife

Oh I know

How this goes

Oh-oh-oh-oh

I need somewhere to hide

You need somewhere to change your mind

I need somewhere to lie

You need somewhere to pick a fight

But when I try to cut the ties

I close my eyes and drop the knife

Oh I know

Oh I know how it feels to

Stand alone against the wind

And let it blow you back again

Oh I know

How this goes

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Summer haze and passing shade

I miss the way you said my name that night

Thought we might but

Yesterday was yesterday and

I'm afraid we've overstayed our time

Was it right?

Cause even at the great divide

I need you in my arms tonight

Oh I know

Oh I know how you try to

Take me as I was before and

Leave me dry and wanting more

Oh I know

How this goes

Oh-oh-oh-oh

But when I try to cut the ties

I close my eyes and drop the knife

Oh I know

Oh I know how it feels to

Stand alone against the wind

And let it blow you back again

Oh I know

How this goes

Oh-oh-oh-oh
