[cello solo] [gospel choir]
[intro]
You learnt to be your true self,
in my company
You showed the parts you hid so well
vulnerabilitiy
[verse]
You Never gave the time to know
How things could really be
You didn't have the chance to heal
To have your heart set free
[verse]
Hurdles we had from the start
deep talks ignite a spark
Words they came straight from the heart
brought light to each others dark
[bridge]
You said that you would roll the dice,
But felt that gamble wasn't right
for you too hard to sacrifice,
But the reigns you held too tight
[pre chorus]
You believe the grass is greener,
But do you really think it true?
The planting of your seeds of doubt
Can't ever grow you something new
[chorus]
You Pulled and pushed
You're hot then cold
You're close then distant,
stick then fold,
Our house of cards
Fall to the floor
They're left unbalanced
From want of more
[verse]
The rough seas and the storms
Are what I tried to calm
I tried to be your lighthouse
To guide you safe from Harm
[verse]
You tried to swim, against the tide
Strong currents they pull you from shore
I Was the rock for you to cling to
But I'm there no more
[bridge]
By habit all your walls go up ,
When things are getting real
You always ran away from me
Convinced that you don't feel
[pre chorus]
The balance has to be just right
We had to give and take the same
this was tested tried and torn
And it was always me to blame
[chorus]
You Pulled and pushed
You're hot then cold
You're close then distant,
stick then fold,
Our house of cards
Fall to the floor
They're left unbalanced
From want of more
[verse]
The foundation of a lasting love
Comes from a solid start
If it doesn't then you'll find in time
Things will only fall apart
[verse]
You're searching for a feeling
That never worked before
I offered you a type of love
That would have given so much more
[bridge]
When we came to any hurdle
You'd always run away
You'd say that you were never sure
Make excuses to not stay
[outro]
Your fearing Mind, it left no room
for our romance to begin,
I saw the mask, that hid the face
The fragile creature deep within
[final verse]
You Pulled and pushed
You're hot then cold
You're close then distant,
stick then fold,
Our house of cards
Fall to the floor
They're left unbalanced
From want of more
