Sapphire (Live) (Live)

歌詞

The road I've walked for my whole life Has brought me to this crossroads And I'm standing here beside you I know you've never been someone To take things on a leap of faith Please trust me once and never cry again Hold my hand We can take this slowly And see where it might lead Going into, going into, going into, going into you And everything seemed to make sense The first time that things seemed to fall in place Just for a little while And now my hopes and dreams are burning down Claw out my eyes I'd rather be blind Than to see you turn around And walk away from me Tear off my ears I'd rather be deaf Than hear you Saying goodbye Lucky ones will never Share what we've shared For I'm damned to know Exactly just what might have been Can't somebody stop this? I feel like I'm drowning And everywhere I turn the water's deeper It would tear out my heart To be nothing more to you Than a smile that occasionally Crosses your face Twenty five years from now What will we have? A pile of ash called What could have been? Treasures can slip through your fingertips And sapphires melt in your hands As I gaze in your jaded eyes I pray that this road isn't ending Walking down this road I thought I felt you hold my hand But looking I can see my palm is empty How can you turn from me? All that I wanted Was to catch the stars and lay them at your feet It would tear out my heart To be nothing more to you Than a smile that occasionally Crosses your face Treasures can slip through your fingertips And sapphires melt in your hands You turn to me with your jaded eyes And I'm scared that I know how this ends And everything fell into place But now it is falling apart I'm trying to hold on But I can see you fading Be quick-Or you've missed it Sometimes when our backs are turned the choice is made Once-In a lifetime If you didn't see it coming then you're much too late This self constructed prison Is comfortable and warm But I can't escape the feeling That there must be something more Everything we've been through That's made us who we are Has brought us here and now the choice is ours to make I'm begging you I'm pleading on my knees I can't believe that this was just a big mistake From jeweled gemstone memories To jaded guarded energies To just gentle victory I know we could last Tell me what I've got to do, Tell me what I've got to do, To get inside your heart Where did we go When there are no more conspiracies? When there's only you and only me Seeing each other for the first time? I pledge myself If you stumble I will carry you And wipe away the tears if you will mine And I'm holding out for a miracle But I'm scared to let go of the bird in my hand And afraid that I've run out of time for a second chance I want to drown myself in your eyes I want to believe but I'm scared that you're lying Tell me there's hope for the ghost of a second chance Chances are meant Meant to be taken But life's so fragile And it's breaking into pieces Somebody help me I feel like I'm dying And I'm reaching for your hand But it's not there And I pray we won't know What we're missing And we'll never imagine What might have been But twenty five years from now I'll still hold on To a fading dream Of me and you Treasures have slipped through my fingertips And the sapphire vanished from my hand I'll never forget the look in your eyes When you lied and said this wasn't ending Treasures have slipped through my fingertips And the sapphire vanished from my hand I say goodbye to your jaded eyes As we reach our unnatural end
