Things I Say

«you held my breath and I held yours
you said you never felt so close
then through the rainfall silence woke
to tell me I was still alone
say you’re lost without me
say we must not fight it
tell me it was all inside my head
if you could say it to my face
that though it’s really goodbye
sometimes you feel you have no place
sometimes you wish you could cry
say you’re lost without me
say we must not fight it
say you won’t believe the things I say
I held your heart and you held mine
I never thought I’d let you down
never thought I’d hear you say
that you feel better this way
say you’re lost without me
say we must not fight it
tell me it was all inside my head
words won’t come without you
say they’re not supposed to
promise me you’ll make them go away
the things I say
