You can turn away, But I see right through you. In the quiet haze, I still reach for you. So afraid of the tide that pulls you, Me too, But I won’t let go, Not if you want me to. Where the river bends, I wait for you, Fading blue. Where your mother wept, I swore I’d never leave. So afraid of the tide that pulls you, Me too, Don’t hesitate, No one else could be you At least, not to me. Every streetlight hums Like it whispers your name. I keep chasing ghosts, But they all look the same. Everybody swears they know, who you are, But they don’t. They trace your shape in the dark, But they’ll never hold, Not like I do. Where the river bends, I wait for you, Fading blue.... Where your mother wept, I swore I’d never leave.... So afraid of the tide that pulls you, Me too, Don’t hesitate, No one else could be you At least, not to me. If you get lost, will you follow the sound? I left every light on, so don’t turn around. I know the weight that you carry inside, But I’m right here, I’m right here tonight. Where the river bends, I wait for you,Fading blue.... Where your mother wept, I swore I’d never leave.... Everybody paints your face in the sky sometimes. Everybody wonders if you dream at night. When I say everybody, I really mean me....
