Ties

We walk across unsteady ground

My heart is tied to yours no doubt

And we both know we're

Close to sinking now

On the sea and sailing out

To a man that we had found

If I run down to

Where I used to know you

My fear is soft and tucked away

At a distance all the same

It'll count you out

In your sleepless vows

Call it over once or twice

When I have to take a side

It'll let me down

Press my face against the clouds

And everybody's got

Who they love

I open up my heart

There's no place to start

Settle down and hold your tongue

Sit across from what you've done

Put a flower down

And keep quiet now

'Cause you've no business being broke

If you'd listened when i spoke

You'd be better now

You'd be better now

And everybody's got

Who they love

I open up my heart

There's no place to start

Everybody's gone

Everybody's moving on

Everybody's left this place

I've opened up my heart

There's no place to make a start

We try not to stay

We try not to stay

We try not to stay
