I saw it coming from a mile ago A flash of lighting on a winding road Wait till I'm paralyzed, then pull me close And tell me something I don't wanna know Soft as a whisper And sharp as a knife The brightest emotion Made both of us blind I carved out a picture Of you in my mind The pain washed away But the scars survive You betrayed the trust You're ashamed of us If I was right I can close my eyes You thought I hit you with a cannonball And that heart of stone must've been hard to fall But when the hurricane had conquered all I heard crying through a crumbled wall Soft as a whisper And sharp as a knife The brightest emotion Made both of us blind I carved out a picture Of you in my mind The pain washed away But the scars survive You betrayed the trust You're ashamed of us If I was right I can close my eyes You betrayed the trust You're ashamed of us If I was right I can close my eyes
