Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I could put my arms around you
Would you remember how it feels
To bask in the glow of my protection?
Stumble and fall head over heels
If I could only find the right words
I'd sweep you off your feet again
You cut the power, but mine is raging
A dreamer till the end
[Chorus]
I'm hanging on your side of town
I notice when you're not around
Can't keep my cool, I'm burning inside
A broken heartbeat, barely alive
[Chorus]
And it's harder to breathe
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
What's written in the heavens above
Can't be denied, it's bigger than love
[Verse 2]
The streets are dripping with decisions of a quiet kind
Hallucinations on the shoulder of the borderline
With my experience, I'm better off just backing down
Instead of tripping through the pages of your side of town
[Verse 3]
Serrated edges of the blade are scraping over the leather
I guess we couldn't keep it together
I thought we had it covered forever
[Chorus]
I'm hanging on your side of town
I notice when you're not around
Can't keep my cool, I'm burning inside
A broken heartbeat, barely alive
[Outro]
And it's harder to breathe
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
What's written in the heavens above
Can't be denied, it's getting harder to breathe
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
What's written in the heavens above
Can't be denied, it's
Bigger than love
