Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ain't it funny
How we pretend we're still a child?
Softly stolen
Under our blanket skies
[Verse 2]
And rescue me from me
And all that I believe
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Will you leave me too?
[Verse 3]
Carve out your heart
For keeps in an old oak tree
Hold me for goodbyes
And whispered lullabies
[Verse 4]
And tell me I am still
The man I'm supposed to be
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Will you leave me too?
Will you leave me too?
[Verse 5]
Too late to turn back now
I'm running out of sound
And I am changing, changing
And if we died right now
This fool you love somehow is here with you
[Verse 6]
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Would you leave me too?
Would you leave me too?
