I held my hand out
It was yours for the taking
I was afraid, I was shaking
And you let go, you let go
You stood so tall
I was small, but you promised
I'd be safe in your arms
What a promise to break
I was afraid, I was shaking
You let me fall
I was afraid... Did you care at all?
I wish someone had warned me
That I'd never be the same
That the ache would find its place
Among the pieces tightly taped
Of this heart that once was beating
Only echoes still remain
Guess I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same
I fell asleep
And I dreamed you beside me
It was so sweet, foolish dream
What a picture to paint
Reality, it's just me
And I'm waking
I held my hand out
It was yours for the taking
I was afraid, I was shaking
You let me fall
You let me fall
I wish someone had warned me
That I'd never be the same
That the ache would find its place
Among the pieces tightly taped
Of this heart that once was beating
Only echoes still remain
Guess I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same
Never be the same
