Reaching in the Dark Revised

Verse 1

I know you’ve got a lot

that you need to think about,

You got a lot of weight

and you want to work it out,

And if that means that for a while

I have to let you go,

That’s fine baby but

I hope you know

I’ll still be

Chorus

Reaching into the dark

Waiting on you to hold my hand.

Talk to me and let me in,

I promise I understand

A part of me will always be

Waiting for you to come home

I know that this will not be a walk in the park,

but I’m reaching in the dark

Verse 2

I know that this was hard,

and it took a lot of strength,

To get all of those words out

and find the courage to walk away,

There’s something to be said about

knowing when you need space

Baby I’m not mad -

it’s gonna be ok,

I’ll still be

Chorus

Reaching into the dark

Waiting on you to hold my hand.

Talk to me and let me in,

I promise I understand

A part of me will always be

Waiting for you to come home

I know that this will not be a walk in the park,

but I’m reaching in the dark

Bridge:

Maybe I was a fool for thinking

We could stay in this fantasy of easy

When it’s so complicated,

You are stronger than I—

I’m still

Reaching in the dark,

Waiting on you to hold my hand,

Watching the door,

Waiting for you to walk in,

Pacing the floor,

Til my heart beats again,

Waiting my turn,

For this to finally begin.
