Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I need you to listen to me, please believe me
I'm completely lonely, please don't judge me
When your tears are falling, I'll catch them as they fall
[Verse 2]
I need you to listen to me, please don't leave me
When your tears are falling, I'll catch them as they fall
[PreChorus]
'Cause inside, we are really made the same
In life, waiting's just a stupid game
[Chorus]
Lift me up
Give me a start
'Cause I've been flying with some broken arms
Lift me up
Just a small nudge
And I'll be flying like a thousand doves
[Refrain]
A thousand doves
A thousand doves
[Verse 3]
I'd do anything for you to really see me
I am human, invisibly bleeding
When your smile is shaking, I'll catch you as you fall
[PreChorus]
I cry more than I ever say
Each time your love seems to save the day
[Chorus]
Lift me up
Give me a start
'Cause I've been flying with some broken arms
Lift me up
Just a small nudge
And I'll be flying like a thousand doves
[Refrain]
A thousand doves
A thousand doves
[Bridge]
So hard, my heart's been in a rage
If you love me then just set me free
And if you don't then, baby, leave
[Bridge]
Set me free
[Chorus]
Lift me up
Give me a start
'Cause I've been flying with some broken arms
Lift me up
Just a small nudge
And I'll be flying like a thousand doves
[Refrain]
A thousand doves
Flying, flying, flying like a thousand doves
Flying, flying, flying like a thousand doves
Flying, flying, flying like a thousand doves
Flying, flying, flying
