The Rest of You - The Gracious Few

Walk away I know

You’re not coming back

No one was ever told and you dared not to ask

I had this feeling you’d rehearsed cause all the words you spoke were so divine.

Left beside myself your silhouette just passing by.

I hear you breathing fast asleep

Is it really so?

I’m tangled up in plaid and basking in the afterglow

I have this feeling we been here to long the circles worn upon these floors

I stand beside myself a sea of change addressed unsure.

If you feel you’ve got to break my heart

That nothing here could ever heal you

If I could be the mend the cast, restart

Would you let me fix the rest of you?

So I wipe away the years

You‘ve blossomed through it all

Had my knees been there for me I might have never fallen

I want this feeling to deny it all, deny you felt the same and I

I left you by yourself my faults were there

Waving their goodbye’s

If you feel you’ve got to break my heart

That nothing here could ever heal you

If I could be the mend the cast, restart

Would you let me fix the rest of you?

You’ve gone uncomfortably quiet & I am comfortably sad

I given in and resigned you held the rein’s in your hands

My hearts divided, I’ve been placed securely under your thumb

My betters been best and I am feeling unsung

Baby walk away I know

You’re not coming back

No I was never told and I dared not to ask

If you feel you’ve got to break my heart

That nothing here could ever heal you

If I could be the mend the cast, restart

Would you let me fix the rest of you?
