Lyrics

If you were a clock, Iʼd be the hands
If you were the tide, Iʼd be the sand
And Iʼd be the sun, if you were the trees
But you are just you and I am just me
We follow along such similar lines
Yeah, we canʼt break away, but our eyes they wander
What is it like on the other side?
Yeah, youʼre turning away, but youʼre dying to know
Let me tell you itʼs beautiful
But you canʼt go back, 'cause your skin gets cracked
So if you donʼt want to see whatʼs inside, honestly donʼt come over
I slip off my shoes, you take off your coat
But, you didnʼt bring me what I wanted, what I wanted the most
A porcelain frame, no photo inside
Youʼre all polished up, but you still, you still want to hide
So we follow along those similar lines
Yeah, we canʼt break away, but our eyes they wander
What is it like on the other side?
Yeah, youʼre turning away, but youʼre dying to know
Let me tell you itʼs beautiful
But you canʼt go back, 'cause your skin gets cracked
So if you donʼt want to see whatʼs inside, honestly donʼt come over
And if you donʼt want to hear how much I love you dear
Donʼt come over
Yeah, if you just want to start breaking my little heart
Donʼt come over
