lyrics

Capo 2

G, Cadd9, Em, C
maybe I’ll just love you
like the chapters on a page
in my favourite book
smoothing down the pages
as you should

look, don't touch
this should be enough
to be with you
one last time
tonight

I think that I was wrong
you never made me strong
you’re someone in my head
and you’re unpicking thread

I hope that I’m right now
theres no more static sound
Now I can see the stars
and they weren’t every ours

Am7, C, Em, G
maybe if all we are is a left over memory
that has crawled into every
part of me, I cant breath

but then if all we are is left over space
from where our hearts came to break
and we weren’t meant to be safe

G, Cadd9, Em, C
maybe I’ll just love you
like the chapters on a page
in my favourite book
smoothing down the pages
as you should

look, don't touch
this should be enough
to be with you
one last time
tonight

maybe if all you are
is someone old
just someone in my home
someone to let go

maybe if all i am
is someone with no plan
just someone’s second hand
someone that gets damned

Am7, C, Em, G
if that’s just all i am is leftover words
that you’ve just said to her
and you weren’t meant to be heard

if thats just all you are is washed up debris
that has clung onto me
and wasn’t meant to be seen

G, Em, Am7, C
We’re all lost inside a world
and we don’t know where we’re coming from
(oh oh OH)
make it easy and say goodbye
before its all begun

we should all take a breath
take a step back
and breath it in
(oh oh OH oh)
before you’re made of patchwork
of your hurt
and where you’ve been

because maybe if all we are
is patchwork people
with patchwork love ahed

we should get up
and we should leave now
while no tears have been ahead

because if all we are
is patchwork people
with patchwork in our hearts

we should make a decision
before we make an incision
and leave before the start
