The Folllow Through

Pride, it leaves you hollow

Another attempt just to settle the score

A war, you know, the one you built it up

It's real defining; humiliation

Oh, it knocks at your door (at your door, oh)

When you say I blow up, I say you cave in

We never found the line between the real and pretend

You know you should accept it: this is really the end

I know for sure, it's what i have to do

Is follow through

And you were everything I'll ever want to be

The only one I ever need to know

I'd wait for you 'til time lay down to sleep

And I'd sneak across the world to let her know

Yeah, that's what I do; yeah, I follow through

Oh, I follow through, oh, and here I stand

Yeah, I'm too close but still you're far away

You never tried but I did

And we still remain divided

Oh, I can't believe that your heart's still beating

It's beating for me at all

How sad of you, oh, but I'm not

I'm not sad at all

When you say I blow up, I say you cave in

We never found the line between the real and pretend

You know you should accept it: this is really the end

I know for sure, it's what i have to do

Is follow through

And you were everything I'll ever want to be

The only one I ever need to know

I'd wait for you 'til time lay down to sleep

And I'd sneak across the world to let her know

Yeah, and as it falls down into night. we run away

And once again divided

But each one knows just what we have to do

We do, we have to follow through

I will lay down my heart, I will let you go

That's what's best for us all

('Cause now we stand beneath the clouds and God above)

I will lay down my heart, I will let you go

(Like we did before)

That's what's best for us all

(But this time, for her, I'll follow through)

You're everything I ever want to be

The only thing I ever need to know

I'd wait for you 'til time lay down to sleep

And I'd sneak across the world to let her know

Hold my heart, patiently

And take my hand, yeah, walk with me

'Cause when the evening comes

We'll set the world on fire

And I was wrong

Let me help you live on

And you were everything I ever want to be

The only one I ever need to know

I'd wait for you 'til time lay down to sleep

Yeah, and I'd sneak across the world to let her know

Yeah, and as it falls down into night, we run away

And once again divided

But each one knows just what we have to do

We do, we have to follow through

(Hold my heart, patiently

And take my hand, yeah, walk with me)

'Cause when the evening comes

We'll set the world on fire

And I was wrong

Let me help you live on
