I can't save you - but i can talk you down
i can hold you - but i won't watch you drown
In my life - things have a way of growing downward
and i don't know if i can watch myself be a coward
again
I don't know you like i thought i did
but i will show you things that i kept hid
In my life - i've always been the one that had to ruin things
so i don't know - is some dark angel pulling on my heart strings
again
In my life - things have a kind of ragged beauty
and i don't seem to know right from wrong
or so they say - unless it's happening to me
People change - i don't know what for
strangers walking in and out my door
Something's got to change - the past just hangs here to remind me
that one of these mornings - i'll reach for you
and find me
I have told you - i won't watch you drown
i can't save you - but i will be around
