I Gave In

He comes to me late at evening
I think of you before I fall asleep
How you laughed and the way you moved
The sound of your voice when you’re talking to me

I remember the way you looked at me before you left us
The way you smiled and told me everything you wanted was coming your way
I asked you to stay
-not to go away

I called for you when the air got colder
I reached for you when I felt too alone
You had me like no one else
Just one look at you and I gave in.

I remember the way we used to talk all through the night.
You told me you loved to make me laugh only to see that I could forget.
You held my hand when I couldn’t breathe.
You promised you’d wait for me.
You said you would.
You never did.

But your wings so heavy
You just couldn't bear it
Couldn't bear it

I called for you when the air got colder
I reached for you when I felt too alone
You had me like no one else
Just one look at you and I gave in

I called for you when the air got colder
I reached for you when I felt too alone
You had me like no one else
Just one look at you and I gave in
