Lyrics

It's been a long time
Long time coming that I'm
Unable to stay my heart
Under the shadows
Of ghosts and regret
I'd perfected the art
I let you think you've won me
Won me over
Then wait for the slightest mistake
I keep bracing for you
For you to leave me
So when you do I won't break

Chorus
I've been waiting for a runaway
I've been waiting for the rainy days
And you didn't just change my mind
You changed my life

I've been lookin' for your red flags
I've been ready to pack my bags
I was waiting for a goodbye
Until you changed my life


I thought strength was holding
Holding back
Playing cards to the chest
But I never felt strong
I was just afraid of
Giving more than I get

Chorus

Bridge
No one ever showed me how to trust
Til' you handed me your heart
And pacified my fears with open arms

Chorus
