When I promised you,
That I would be strong,
It was not a lie,
It was just that I was wrong
There’s no way I’d ever guess,
I’d be so defenseless
*
I have walked against the wind,
I find shelter in my friends,
There’s some comfort in the wine,
If I can sleep it buys me time,
I can duck out of the rain,
But there’s no hiding from the truth,
I’m still naked to the pain,
Of losing you
I can’t build a door,
That you can’t drift through,
When I close my eyes,
I still dream of you
Don’t you know when you love someone,
There’s no protection
* Repeat
I can duck out of the rain,
But there’s no hiding from the truth,
But I’m still naked to the pain… of losing you.
