I don't want to feel the ground

When you finally let me down

I don't want to fade away

If I'm standing in your way

So go from my gate

I want to see you walking away

With that look on your face

Don't hide it away

So you can leave me and not be lonely

This time's too slow to speak

And I am waiting to believe

This flame's too dim to keep

The kettle watching me

Your shadow's on my wall

It's grown much too tall

You reach for my ceiling

Night becomes day

You can leave me and not be lonely

You're standing at my door

But you're not knocking, not like before

You open up to speak

There are no words lеft for you to breathe

My hand's tied to your sleevе

My heart's tied to a key

It won't blow me away

If I'm holding on tight

You can leave me and not be lonely
