lyrics

LINE IN THE SAND
--------------------------
Love and light - two strangers in hindsight
With no remorse, there’s no reason to stay the course
 
Somewhere in the act of waking you wound up in a world of fear
For every little step you’re taking there’s one that leads you right back here
Never could a heart so broken ever really sink/sync with mine
I never will forget the moment when we crossed that line

Whoever would’ve thought our love would be so frail?
Whoever would’ve thought you’d set it up to fail?
How typical of me - how wonderfully naïve and true
 
So it goes - you’re breathing in shadows
Unless/until you choose the cycle continues
 
Standing up to all your reasons - the only way to go from here
Or I never will escape your demons, I never will escape your fear
You already forgave yourself for pretending that the shame was mine
I never will forget the moment when you crossed that line
 
Whoever would’ve thought our bird would never fly?
Whoever would’ve thought you wanted it to die?
How typical of me - how wonderfully naïve and true
 
I’m sorry for the things you went through - but they never ever were my fault
I realise you never meant to surrender to the things you thought
I already forgave myself for that which never was my crime
I never will forget the moment when I crossed that line
 
Whoever would’ve thought our love would end that way?
Whoever would’ve thought there’d be a price to pay?
How innocent of me - how tragically naïve of you
 
Whoever would’ve thought our love would be so frail?
Whoever would’ve thought you’d set it up to fail?
How typical of me - how wonderfully naïve and true
Whoever would’ve thought our bird would never fly?
Whoever would’ve thought you wanted it to die?
How typical of me - how wonderfully naïve and true
 
How typical of me - how wonderfully naïve and true
