paroles de chanson What If I Said That You Didn't Have to Stay - This Wild Life

Nothing hurts like you do, baby
Nothing keeps me down
You said, "I don't think you're happy lately"
Then there was no sound
What if I said that you didn't have to stay?
My heart is under my ribs, but my love is not a cage

Fuck the distance, we're just distant
And I've been howling, but you don't listen
To a word I say, I was underneath the moon
I was thinking about you, hoping you could feel it, too
You were underneath the clouds
You were lonely in the crowd
You were bringing me down, down, down
Hmm

Slow to start but quick to give up
I've been beaten down
You said, "I guess the bottom's just the place to
Build from solid ground"
Cracks in my life are where the light is shining through
I let it reach my skin but I left nothing for you

Oh, fuck the distance, we're just distant
And I've been howling, but you don't listen
To a word I say, I was underneath the moon
I was thinking about you, hoping you could feel it, too
You were underneath the clouds
You were lonely in the crowd
You were bringing me down

I didn't mean to tear you down to nothing
But you're not worth a damn if you're not with me
I never meant to 'cause you so much heartache
But I don't give a damn since you set me free
And after all the hardships that we've been through
After I saved you from yourself
It served no purpose 'cause I lost you
Along with the best part of myself

Fuck the distance, we're just distant
And I've been howling but you don't listen
To a word I say, I was underneath the moon
I was thinking about you
You were underneath the clouds
You were lonely in the crowd
Bringing me down, down, down
