Small Disasters

AlphabetLyrics.com


Rest my head against the wall
Waiting for a call that never came
'cause time moves so slowly when you're still holding onto blame.

I tried but can't forget the day
You were reaching for my hand as I touched your face
When your secrets were still safe from me
Till your eyes gave you away.

'cause we are drowning
Above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers
With a past that's just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real.

And now I see the warning signs
With the benefit of hindsight I was blind
To the way you'd make me feel so crazy
Just to protect your lies.

And all I wanted was the truth
The better part of you that I still see
'cause love is all we have to give
But you took my best for free.

'cause we are drowning
Above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers
With a past that's just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real.

And the one thing that really hurts is
We were so close to being perfect
And I know you'll be okay
And that's what kills me, yeah...

'cause we are drowning
Above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers
With a past that's just a string of small disasters.

'cause we are drowning
Above the water
In a movie drained of colour
Luckless lovers
With a past that's just a string of small disasters
I'd give it all just to feel something real
(Something real)
Oh, I'd give it all just to feel something real.
