Should've Been
The weight that's on your back
I hope it's not there when I'm gone
I hope it's not there for too long
I hope it's not there when I'm gone
The sea that's in your eyes
I hope it can lift when we part
I hope it won't dwell on your heart
I hope it can lift when we part
Cause darling when you called for me
I was chasing the band
I wasn't ready to land
I was off making a stand
When I should've been holding your hand
I should've been lost in your eyes
I should've been breathing your soul
I should've been holding you close
The night you stripped me bare
I remember the dew on your cheek, made me weak
I remember the scent on your skin
Melting my cold from within
Cause darling when you called for me
I was chasing the band
I wasn't ready to land
Honey, why was I making a stand
When I should've been holding your hand
I should've been lost in your eyes
I should've been breathing your soul
I should've been holding you close
Should've been lost in your eyes, breathing your soul
Holding you close, I was out of control
I was chasing the band, making a stand
So consumed with my life, much too selfish to land
Should've seen through the blaze to the flag that you raised
Cause your heart was estranged from the war that I waged
God I should've seen that this weight was too much for us both to command
I hope it's not there when I'm gone
I hope it's not there for too long
I hope it's not there when I'm gone
The sea that's in your eyes
I hope it can lift when we part
I hope it won't dwell on your heart
I hope it can lift when we part
Cause darling when you called for me
I was chasing the band
I wasn't ready to land
I was off making a stand
When I should've been holding your hand
I should've been lost in your eyes
I should've been breathing your soul
I should've been holding you close
The night you stripped me bare
I remember the dew on your cheek, made me weak
I remember the scent on your skin
Melting my cold from within
Cause darling when you called for me
I was chasing the band
I wasn't ready to land
Honey, why was I making a stand
When I should've been holding your hand
I should've been lost in your eyes
I should've been breathing your soul
I should've been holding you close
Should've been lost in your eyes, breathing your soul
Holding you close, I was out of control
I was chasing the band, making a stand
So consumed with my life, much too selfish to land
Should've seen through the blaze to the flag that you raised
Cause your heart was estranged from the war that I waged
God I should've seen that this weight was too much for us both to command
