[Verse]
GI want you to Bwrite it out.
I was the Cwriting on the wall when you Dwere laying down.
GOh what a joy, Bstanding on the side.
I keep comCing back here, keep living tDhe lie.
CKept hope in a fire, Duntil it died.
[Chorus]
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
CAnd when you're feeling dDown and out
[Verse]
GI'm not strong.
BYou're never coming back.
CAnd you would never love someone Dso hopeless.
GNow I'm a silhouette, Bfloating in the mist.
CI'm hanging by your door, Din the halls again.
CKept hope in a fDire, until it died.
[Chorus]
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
CAnd when you're feeling down and Dout,
[Bridge]
EmI want you to see me.
And DI will swallow my dGoubt again.
EmI want you to see me
And DI will swallow my dGoubt again.
EmI want you to see me
And DI will swallow my dGoubt again.
CI want you to see me
DI want you to see me.
[Chorus]
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
GIf I can't fEmight for the one I lDove, I'll be leaving.
CAnd when you're feeling down and Dout,
I want you to sGee me.
