[Verse 1:]

She got there so much faster than

You could ever lead

Her heart is so much bigger than

You would ever need

She sat there on the sidelines

Waiting for the right time

With roses in her hands

[Chorus:]

You didn't understand

You thought that only big and strong

Could take your pretty little hands

But when you looked into her eyes

You felt a little part of you come back to life

And you were lost

You thought that you would surely end up

Hanging on a cross

And when the clock came crashing down

You told a littlе lie that kept you safe and sound

But look now

[Verse 2:]

Shе was always there for you

Waiting to be burned

And when the fears you had came true

You were quick to turn

With sugar on your tongue

And no choice but to run

Hold your heart firm in your hand

[Chorus:]

You didn't understand

You thought that only big and strong

Could take your pretty little hands

But when you looked into her eyes

You felt a little part of you come back to life

And you were lost

You thought that you would surely end up

Hanging on a cross

And when the clock came crashing down

You told a little lie that kept you safe and sound

But look now

[Bridge:]

And when I'm gone

Don't you dare say you were good to me

You were never that strong

And your heart is always just as weak

I wish I'd said something sooner

It would have saved me some trouble

And maybe you can let me out my bubble

[Chorus:]

You didn't understand

You thought that only big and strong

Could take your pretty little hands

But when you looked into her eyes

You felt a little part of you come back to life

And you were lost

You thought that you would surely end up

Hanging on a cross

And when the clock came crashing down

You told a little lie that kept you safe and sound

But look now
