Sit down here beside me
I can see you need a friend to talk to
Take my hand
I’ll keep you warm

Let me dry your sad brown eyes
I can’t understand how he could tell you lies
and hurt you
and make you want to go away

I’m sure you did everything you should
And I bet he did everything he could
‘till you finally saw the writing on the wall

bridge

When you heart is broken
time slows down

The nights are long and cold and lonely
when there’s no one around

And the absence of their presence
is the only sound

But beneath lies lie more lies
I’m glad you finally saw it in his eyes
‘cause you’ll only live if you ‘wake

Before you hit the ground

bridge

Well this might sound just a little bit crazy
It might be the furthest thing from you mind

But the tears you shed today
might wash that old love away

And you might hold me
softly in time

Yea, those tears you shed today
might wash that old love away
And you might hold me
softly in time

Yea, you might hold me
softly in time

I might hold you
softly in time

bridge (end)
