lyrics

I woke up today, looking for the world I knew
But something had changed, something that I didn’t choose
I looked around the house, searching for signs of you
But you were gone
You were gone
You were gone
You were gone

Did I tie you down, tethered to the ground?
Did I rain on all your plans?
Something’s in you that I never knew, something I don’t understand
So you stepped up into the whirling wind, I couldn’t catch you with my hands
With my hands, you slipped through my hands

So here I am alone, on the ground waving goodbye
You’re out on your own, you’re in the clouds flying so high
And even though the weather don’t aim to bring you back, I’ll still search the sky
But you are gone
You are gone
You are gone
You are gone

Did I tie you down, tethered to the ground?
Did I rain on all your plans?
Something’s in you that I never knew, something I don’t understand
So you stepped up into the whirling wind, I couldn’t catch you with my hands
With my hands, you slipped through my hands

This cracking heart I have isn’t waterproof
The storm you sent my way is gonna soak right through
Chill me to the bone, chill me to soul
Wash away this love that I couldn’t control, oh no
I couldn’t control

Did I tie you down, tethered to the ground?
Did I rain on all your plans?
Something’s in you that I never knew, something I don’t understand
So you stepped up into the whirling wind, I couldn’t catch you with my hands
With my hands, you slipped through my hands
