Slow Dance

Always raising you up
But I'm cast down, down
Just trying to act like you wanted me to
Months go by, wondering why
Wish I could rise and fall when you wanted me to

I know what I said
I know what I did
I'm clearly out of my mind
I thought you wanted me too
Said all the wrong words
In all the wrong ways
I'll disappear like a fog
If you want me to

We do a slow dance
No chance
You step back as I'm moving in to you
Stuck in a slow dance
No chance
To go any faster, disaster

Used to the haze, lost in your ways
You wouldn't dim your light even if I wanted you to
Left on the side, hardly alive
You couldn't make me hate you even if you wanted to

Wherever you've gone, no matter how far
I don't care if it hurts
I just want you back home
Whatever we mend, however we grow
All the damage is done
Could you want me too?

We do a slow dance
No chance
You step back as I'm moving in to you
Stuck in a slow dance
No chance
To go any faster, disaster

Set it on fire, cut all the wires
Dance in the road at night if you wanted me to
(Wanted by the sea, rising under me)
Hold you up higher, at your desire
Split all the clouds apart if you wanted me to
(Nothing left to say, watch you fade away)

Wherever you've gone
No matter how far
I don't care if it hurts
I just want you back home
