I don't want to feel the ground When you finally let me down I don't want to fade away If I'm standing in your way So go from my gate I want to see you walking in away With that look on your face Don't hide it away So you can leave me and not be lonely This time's too slow to speak And I am waiting to believe This flame's too dim to keep The kettle watching me Your shadow's on my wall It's grown much too tall You reach for my ceiling Night becomes day You can leave me and not be lonely You're standing at my door But your not knocking, not like before You open up to speak There are no words left for you to breathe My hand's tied to your sleeve My heart's tied to a key It won't blow me away If I'm holding on tight You can leave me and not be lonely
