Someone was saving my life for the first time
Oh I only wanted you to stay
I only wanted you to be there when I opened up my eyes, eyes
Someone was saving my life for the first time
Someone was saving my life for the first time
I was caught in your masquerade wish I'd stayed beneath my veil
Foolishly I romanticized
And the chill settles in
But it just seemed so easy to open up myself to you
Foolishly I romanticized
Oh once more into the wind the embers scatter
Linger and mean the words you said
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Oh doesn't it ever stay?
Farewell, fair weather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again
I only wanted you to stay
I only wanted you to be there when I opened up my eyes
I only wanted you to be the one to get me through that night
I only wanted you to be there when I opened up my eyes
Linger and mean the words you said
I, I only wanted you to stay
