I was shaken awake when you walked away

Wish I'd taken all of your words with more grace

I was never meant to listen when you said you couldn't stay

I was never strong enough to hit the brakes

But we were spinning and out of control

Grateful you got there first

Saved us from so much worse

Two broken hearts never made up a whole

Apologies rehearsed

You took my best and worst

Everything I offered

If you reached out for my hands, I'd grab tighter and hold

But if that's not in our plans, I'll learn to be alone

I'd run straight into your arms, call me dearly departed

But I know it's not what you want, so I'll finish what you started

In a few months I won't feel all the sting

Let myself complain knowing one day I won't remember a thing

And all I wanted was you here but there's no point in loving you when I'm living in fear

Closing my own wounds, screaming I am here

And I'd just like to work it out now

But if it's meant to be

It'll be eventually

I can't keep lying, saying I know how

To play at my own speed

To hold onto my peace

And hold you next to me

If you reached out for my hands, I'd grab tighter and hold

But if that's not in our plans, I'll learn to be alone

I'd run straight into your arms, call me dearly departed

But I know it's not what you want, so I'll finish what you started

Hope one day you get all that you envisioned

Think of you at night, it's become tradition

I'm so sorry I couldn't learn to listen

If you're hearing this, know that you're forgiven

If you reached out for my hands, I'd grab tighter and hold

But if that's not in our plans, I'll learn to let you go

I'd run straight into your arms, call me dearly departed

But I know it's not what you want, so I'll finish what you started

If you reached out for my hands, I'd grab tighter and hold

But if that's not in our plans, I'll learn to be alone

I'd run straight into your arms, call me dearly departed

But I know it's not what you want, so I'll finish what you started

Hope one day you get all that you envisioned

Think of you at night, it's become tradition

I'm so sorry I couldn't learn to listen

If you're hearing this, know that you're forgiven

Know that I forgive, know that you're forgiven

Know that I forgive, know that you're forgiven

Know that I forgive, know that you're forgiven

Know that I forgive, know that you're forgiven
