Lyrics

Thin Air

[Verse 1]

I can't keep up, you're

Moving too fast

Deep holes and darkness

These things will pass

[Pre-Chorus]

Dark times and strange places where...

[Chorus]

When I came to see you

You had nothing to say

I stood right beside you

You turned the other way

I reached out to hold you

And found nobody there

You turn into air

[Verse 2]

Trust me, I want you

Just as you are

Don't change the things you do

Just stay as you are

[Pre-Chorus]

Dark times and strange places where...

[Chorus]

When I came to see you

You had nothing to say

I stood right beside you

You turned the other way

I reached out to hold you

And found nobody there

You turn into air

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]

Dark times and strange places where...

[Chorus]

When I came to see you

You had nothing to say

I stood right beside you

You turned the other way

I reached out to hold you

And found nobody there

You turn into air
