A Long Way To Go

Give me your hand and close your eyes
It's time to draw the line, you're my sinking ship
With you I've learned how to keep my silence
I’ve learned how to escape from within
I will never let myself heal
Before my eyes you disappeared
Without a chance to make it last
I know there’s a still a long, long way to go
Please understand I’ve never been here before
Just take me in tonight and I'll remind you why
Silent kisses held in by these fragile walls
Frozen as I stared at you I’m waiting for my life to change
And I’m dying to take this pain away
These short stories, brief passages in our lives
Get to their unstoppable ending in the blink an of eye
I know there’s still a lot of work to be done
Please understand I’ve never been here before
Just take me in tonight and I'll remind you why
Silent kisses held in by these fragile walls
Frozen as I stared at you I’m waiting for my life to change
And I’m dying
And I’m just one second away from wishing
And I’m just one argument from leaving
One step closer to surrendering myself again
