lyrics

I'm stepping light and slow
Through a fast-paced town
Trying not to get my hopes up
Cos they always get shot down
You left me standing at the corner
In the hope I'd see your face
I know it's been a while
I still find myself in this place

I hope you fall right back
Help me out a little
I'm slipping through the cracks
Should have taken less
Could have given more
The chance is gone with a click
And shut of the door

Memories creep like shadows
Projected on the wall
Of clouded days in sorrow
Lit by the faces I once saw
Everything you said to me
Held closely from afar
They're only words you didn't mean
Whispered softly to the stars

I hope you fall right back
Help me out a little
I'm slipping through the cracks
Should have taken less
Could have given more
The chance is gone with a click
And shut of the door

There's a ghost who haunts my head
And she looks a lot like you
She smiles from a distance
In the hope it'll see me through
But I can't seem to escape
She steps in and clouds my view
I wish things didn't work out
The only way they ever do

I hope you fall right back
Help me out a little
I'm slipping through the cracks
Should have taken less
Could have given more
The chance is gone with a click
And shut of the door
