If I Untether You

V5.5

[[VERSE 1]] A man on a TV show once said, “Change ain’t lookin’ for friends.” Lover, change has you by the throat. Is this an end about to begin? [[VERSE 2]] I‘ve never been so open, so open With someone so very closed in. We were bound so tightly together I didn’t notice the rope wearing thin. [[CHORUS]] If I untether you here and now, I’ll run beneath you as you drift away (drift away, you drift away) I’ll remember when you fin’lly make landfall I’ll wait ‘til there’s nothing else to say. [[VERSE 3]] How tired I must have made you Tying you down like a ship run aground I don’t know what this is I‘m feeling, But if it’s freedom, it’s a foreign sound. ]]CHORUS]] If I untether you here and now, I’ll run beneath you as you drift away (drift away, you drift away) I’ll wonder where you fin’lly made landfall I’ll wait ‘til there’s nothing left to say. [[BRIDGE] You need a light in another place, and I can’t be the sun (you know I can't be the sun) You need to find a light in other places, those I can’t be from. [[CHORUS]] If I untether you here and now, I’ll run beneath you as you drift away. (drift away, you drift away) I’ll forget where you fin’lly made landfall I’ll wait ‘til there‘s nothing more to say. [[OUTRO]] I can’t remember if you fin’lly made landfall But I’ll wave ‘til there’s nothing left to say. (I'll keep waiting, keep waiting) Nothing left, nothing left, nothing left to say
