You pick me up when I'm falling
Answer me when I'm calling
All in all, when I hear your voice, whether now, or six days on
Just to hear your voice keeps me holding on and on 

I pray that your heart is mine
I feel, all these years, I've romanticized
What you say, what I hear, what we are
It seemed easier to just keep holding on, all this time

You pick me up when I'm falling
Answer me when I'm calling
All in all, when I hear your voice, whether now, or six days on
Just to hear your voice keeps me holding on and on 

Today, I'll leave my heart behind
And after all these years, take some sound advice
I should be her friend and give up on all the rest
Can I live my life as 'eternal second best', somehow? 

I'd rather wade all my life
In murky waters to my eyes.
Its okay, 'cause each breath just saves my life.
Are you my savior or my captor, please decide
Because... 

You pick me up when I'm falling
Answer me when I'm calling
All in all, when I hear your voice, whether now, or six days on
Just to hear your voice keeps me holding on and on

I've been waiting for most my life, but I just can't say good bye
I'll be wasting my whole damn life, if I just can't change your mind
