Stepping out on a ledge, meet me halfway Let your guard, let it down, I won't run away When you're gone, everything seems a little bit off I've got to know, even though I've never felt so unprepared I don't want to let this thing go That's fine, if you're scared I'd rather get carried away than never know (I hate how I handle myself when you're gone) I hate how I handle myself when you're gone Can't face that I'm getting older Fairweather friends that were there all along Don't carry the weight that you shoulder Hear me out, hear me out, listen closely Without a doubt, out a doubt you're the only one I want, want to see more than anyone else But you need time to think and forget how you felt before Now every new thought complicates What I said was more Than what you expected because I was never sure I hate how I handle myself when you're gone Can't face that I'm getting older Fairweather friends that were there all along Don't carry the weight that you shoulder Close my eyes so I can see again, see again I don't know why, why I can breathe again, breathe again Close my eyes so I can see again, see again I don't know why, why I can breathe again, breathe again I hate how I handle myself when you're gone Can't face that I'm getting older Fairweather friends that were there all along Don't carry the weight that you shoulder I hate how I handle myself when you're gone (Close my eyes so I can see again, see again) Can't face that I'm getting older (I don't know why, why I can breathe again, breathe again) Fairweather friends that were there all along (Close my eyes so I can see again, see again) Don't carry the weight that you shoulder (I don't know why, why I can breathe again, breathe again) I hate how I handle myself when you're gone (Close my eyes so I can see again, see again) Can't face that I'm getting older (I don't know why, why I can breathe again, breathe again) Fairweather friends that were there all along Don't carry the weight that you shoulder
