I know it wasn't easy
You were just a kid
Maybe leaving us that day
Was the best thing she ever did
I tried to tell you then
She was never going to change her mind
But you kept holding on to hope
The kind that eats you up inside
How do I get through?
How do I get through to you?
How do I get through to you?
Just about thirteen
You were never going to be the same
Your first time in Amsterdam
She showed you how to numb the pain
You came back with a secret
And a habit that you had found
Would grow into obsession
And leave you helpless on the ground
How do I get through?
How do I get through to you?
How do I get through to you?
Can't you hear me calling out?
Brother let me back inside
How do I get through to you?
You can put your back up
You can hide behind your wall
Oh brother you know blood is blood
And I never want to see you fall
I still believe in you
And my heart is never going to change
It doesn't matter what you do
I'm never going to turn away
How do I get through?
How do I get through to you?
How do I get through to you?
Can't you hear me calling out?
Brother let me back inside
How do I get through to you?
