Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was stronger that night
I wanted to go alone
The rain was coming down
And nobody could leave, we stayed around
[Verse 2]
I said, things I need like
Alaska and the bears
You knew you couldn't fight
Swimming underneath the Northern Lights
[Verse 3]
You didn't know it
But I had you in the palm of my hand
Palm of my hand and
[Verse 4]
I confess, I needed you there
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
When the storm breaks through
I'll be standing there waiting for you
Waiting for you, waiting for you
[Verse 5]
You can dream away life
Hitch a ride to the southern tip of Africa
And put up all the fences that you like
[Verse 6]
But I can't sing you sweetly
You're on your own there
You're on your own
[Verse 7]
I didn't know it
I thought I had you in the palm of my hand
Palm of my hand now
[Verse 8]
I confess, I needed you there
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
When the storm breaks through
I'll be standing there waiting for you
[Verse 9]
Take me down, love me in the avenue
It'll never be what you want it to
Was it like this with her?
Is it everything you ever dreamed of?
[Verse 10]
I, I, I, I thought I had you in the palm of my hand
Palm of my hand
[Verse 11]
I confess, I needed you there
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
I've gone through every memory we shared tonight
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
And I don't have the guts to carry on without you
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
When the storm breaks through
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
I'll be standing there waiting for you
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
Waiting for you, waiting for you
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
(Are you ready? Tell me when you wanna go)
