[Verse 1] The ones you hold, the ones you let go The ones you save, the ones you can't When you fall and break, I'm close enough to catch you But not enough to hold you [Pre-Chorus] There's a weight between your bones that makes it hard for us to be together These are things I can't control I still care, but I can't carry you [Chorus] 'Cause it's a long way, long way down And we're a long way from each other now And if there's no way we can work it out I still care, but I can't carry you (Carry you) [Verse 2] You look at me through your screen And I can't bear to see you cry The words that break between your lips could fill an ocean And the answer's right before your eyes (Right before your eyes) [Pre-Chorus] But there's a weight between your bones that makes it hard for us to be together These are things I can't control I still care, but I can't carry you (Carry you, carry you) [Chorus] 'Cause it's a long way, long way down And we're a long way from each other now (Each other now) And if there's no way we can work it out (Work it out) I still care, but I can't carry you (Carry you) [Hammond and guitar solo] [Bridge] [Final Chorus] Yeah, it's a long way, long way down (Long way down) And we're a long way from each other now (Each other now) And if there's no way we can work it out (Work it out) I still care, but I can't carry you (Carry you) [Outro] The ones you hold, the ones you let go
