Somehow

[Verse 1: Julia Stone]

I tell you that I want you

That I've loved you for so long now

I stand before you

My eyes they fall to the ground

I am a coward here

In these feelings I've found

But I want to be braver

I won't play you like a card in my hand

I want to be real

So you know where I stand

[Chorus: Angus & Julia Stone]

Somehow

This day is not mine to break

And I must learn now

There are some things I cannot take

Somehow

This time is not mine to choose

And I must learn now

Sometimes it's okay to lose

[Post-Chorus: Angus & Julia Stone, Julia Stone]

Desire

It's burning my heart

Desire

It's tearing this old house apart

But it feels so good

It feels so bad

It feels so good

Why do I feel so sad?

I wouldn't change a thing

I don't need to survive

I wouldn't change a thing

I'm gonna burn alive

[Verse 2: Julia Stone]

I'll make you a tea now

You're folding your arms

I'm feeling empty

I'm feeling alarmed

But I'm gonna stay right here

I have found something new

Out in the darkness all alone

But with the light of loving you

[Chorus: Angus & Julia Stone]

Somehow

This day is not mine to break

And I must learn now

There are some things I cannot take

Somehow

This time is not mine to choose

And I must learn now

Sometimes it's okay to lose

[Post-Chorus: Angus & Julia Stone, Julia Stone, Angus Stone]

Desire

It's burning my heart

Desire

It's tearing this old house apart

But it feels so good (Desire)

It feels so bad

Darling it feels so good (Desire)

Why do I feel so sad

I wouldn't change a thing (Desire)

I don't need to survive

I wouldn't change a thing

I'm gonna burn alive

I wouldn't change a thing

I don't need to survive

I wouldn't change a thing

I'm gonna burn alive
