Lyrics
If I could show you now
What I have done
The world around you would be faded
And you'd let go
of the lies you've spun
and you'd see what has begun
If I could hold you now
I could save you
But my arms won't reach you when you run
I have prayed for a way I could believe you
but I can't make the past become undone
Your heart is locked up
It's worse than anything and I have never seen
Anyone who's so afraid of themselves as they're looking out at what should be the key
If I could hold you now
I could save you
But my arms won't reach you when you run
I have prayed for a way I could believe you
but I can't make the past become undone
The rest is in your head now
Without the comfort of my embrace to hold you
The road ahead is wide; open space is all mine!
I see possibilities, my world is fuller while yours stays so empty...
If I could hold you now
I could save you
But my arms won't reach you when you run
I have prayed for a way I could believe you
but I can't make the past become undone
you've come undone...
