If you knew me you would stay If you knew me you would walk away We don't get black and white Ours is only shadowed light
This is how it goes One year's golden and the next one blows It could be I am wrong Mistaking breaking dusk for dawn See, I've heard all this before My glass ceiling could be your ground floor If I knew better I would stay If I knew better I would walk away
Like the earth that splits and moves A woman by her fault is known I don't see crack and sin Only see how the light gets in The grey sky's it threatens rain above As our love it threatens pain, my love You can't hurt the one you already left behind Walk it back baby, take another breath, rewind And let it rain, let it rain
There is nothing you could do To make me turn my back on you There is nothing you could say I've imagined worse anyway
The waves break on the shore The shore, it only waits for more Like the earth that splits in moves A woman by her faults is known I don't see cracks and sin Only see how the light gets it The grey sky it threatens rain above As our love it threatens pain, my love You can't hurt the one you've already left behind Walk it back baby, take another breath, rewind And let it rain Let it rain Let it rain
