I see those tears in your eyes I feel so helpless inside Oh love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired Cold hands, red eyes Packed your bags at midnight They've been there for weeks You don't know what goodbye means Just roll up a cigarette Just forget about this mess Waiting on the sidelines From the sidelines I see those tears in your eyes And I feel so helpless inside Oh love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired If your ghost pulls you up high And it feels like you've lost who you are My love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired Oh, you whisper, I'm alright That I see through your white lies And these walls don't talk But if they could, they'd say Can't hide the secrets You can't forget about this mess I'm waiting on the sidelines From the sidelines I see those tears in your eyes And I feel so helpless inside Oh love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired If your ghost pulls you up high And it feels like you've lost who you are My love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired I know right now you feel a bit lost I'm gonna try hard to pick you up But it's a long way down Yeah, it's a long way down I know right now you feel alone And all the good things they hurt the most But it's a long way down Yeah, it's a long way down Down Just let me love you when your heart is tired If your ghost pulls you apart And it feels like you lost who you are My love, there's no need to hide Just let me love you when your heart is tired Just let me love you when your heart is tired
