you could be mine like you once were
but it never works when the ships sail away
and each goes their own way
you could stay here like you did before
though my touch was cold and my smile was gone
still you didn't mind
you could go on for days and try to change my name
play my favorite song on and on
you could come to me any rainy day
I'll shelter you, then run away
run away, run away
you could make me yours or at least try
you were once so close but I opened my eyes
I was so blind
you could learn to fly or play in a band
you could read my lips, but not my heart
you were so blind
you could go on for days and try to change my name
play my favorite song on and on
you could come to me any rainy day
I'll shelter you, then run away
run away, run away
we walked away like it was okay
try and try but our hands were tied
my box of matches started this flame
and the look in your eyes
the rush through your veins
I am the one to blame
you could go on for days and try to change my name
play my favorite song on and on
you could come to me any rainy day
I'll shelter you, then run away
run away, run away
I'll shelter you
