lyrics
When I heard the words I stood my ground
With just one kiss you made my head lose space and fall around
Some might say the weak becomes the prey and let us down
But in some other time and some other life you brought me round
It was a night like any other night
We walked in and I knew something there just wasn’t right
I hate to say the way you pray it suddenly felt so old
But I didn’t mind leaving you behind in spite
I’m speaking from my heart
I’m speaking with my head
The light that pushed me down
The pounding of my heart
Resounding in my head
The light that pushed me down
Given time foundations will decay
If you don’t take time to remould the clay
But on occasion they will raise themselves up from the ground
If it’s meant to be it will be again someday
When looking back you’ll find someone who feels so out of place
You try to reason with yourself eliminate just that one face
With just one kiss you made my head lose space and fall around
Some might say the weak becomes the prey and let us down
But in some other time and some other life you brought me round
It was a night like any other night
We walked in and I knew something there just wasn’t right
I hate to say the way you pray it suddenly felt so old
But I didn’t mind leaving you behind in spite
I’m speaking from my heart
I’m speaking with my head
The light that pushed me down
The pounding of my heart
Resounding in my head
The light that pushed me down
Given time foundations will decay
If you don’t take time to remould the clay
But on occasion they will raise themselves up from the ground
If it’s meant to be it will be again someday
When looking back you’ll find someone who feels so out of place
You try to reason with yourself eliminate just that one face
