I was a building, you were a bird
I was rooted and hoped you were
I wanted steady, I wanted you
But I loved deeper than you asked me to
So you flew and I chased until my feet turned blue
But what is love if you have to beg for it
Nearly killed me just waiting for it
So I watched as you flew
I was an ocean that you sank below
I rolled like thunder and you ran for home
I could see you, the parts you hid
I gave everything when you wanted a little bit
So you flew and I chased until my feet turned blue
But what is love if you have to beg for it
Nearly killed me just hoping for it
So I watched as you flew
