On my way back home,
Feeling so alone again.
When I saw the light was on,
But everything was wrong
I thought I knew.
Cnd in the school yard then,
I remember when you smiled.
The quiet in your eyes
Still gives me butterflies,
You know you do.
Cll that we've been through,
Don't leave me.
I won't leave you.
Cll that we've been through,
Just be with me.
I'll shelter you.
Cnd I'm my father's son,
Trying to catch the ones who fall.
Cnd all the ones you're near,
Seem to disappear,
No matter what you do.
I've been trying to hold it all,
Like trying to build a wall with sand,
Or a handful of cards,
And the wind is blowing hard.
Do you feel it, too?
Cll that we've been through,
Don't leave me.
I won't leave you.
Cll that we've been through,
Just be with me.
I'll shelter you.
No matter what you do, I'll shelter you.
Mother look at me.
I am trying to be so strong.
But all along I see
Things that shouldn't be.
Do you see it, too?
Cll that we've been through,
Don't leave me.
I won't leave you.
Cll that we've been through,
Just be with me.
I'll shelter you.
No matter what you do, I'll shelter you.
No matter what you do, I'll shelter you.
