I think we both knew
That it was going to end
Before it began
White lights flashing
Hold on through the night
Another reason to survive
Keep her company
Lie beside her
Whisper sweet nothings
My first gulp of fresh air
Is met with a smile
Eager to find peace
I found comfort
In the feeling of being wanted
Enough to choose to live
And so you keep me company
Lie beside me...
Whisper sweet nothings
Truth spurns
Hardest when your heart is wounded
One less reason to live
& I still find comfort
In the feeling of being wanted
Just not from you

I think we both knew
That it was going to end
Before it began
White lights flashing
Hold on through the night
Another reason to survive
Keep her company
Lie beside her
Whisper sweet nothings
My first gulp of fresh air
Is met with a smile
Eager to find peace
I found comfort
In the feeling of being wanted
Enough to choose to live
And so you keep me company
Lie beside me...
Whisper sweet nothings
Truth spurns
Hardest when your heart is wounded
One less reason to live
& I still find comfort
In the feeling of being wanted
Just not from you
