Lyrics

Fragile and Dear

[Verse 1]

We spent years on a tear to get away

You and I, we revived yesterdays

But the movements in between our hearts' desires

Oh, they changed so suddenly and we expired

[Chorus]

You can't know the way it feels

To lose something so fragile, dear to you

Hold you up against the light

Speak the truth and say goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

[Bridge]

I've tried so hard to get free

But you still come back and haunt me

[Pre-Chorus]

And the movements that divide our hearts' desires

All the reasons that I knew we would expire

[Chorus]

You can't know the way it feels

To lose something so fragile, dear to you

Hold you up against the light

Speak the truth and say goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

You can't know the way it feels

To lose something so fragile, dear to you

Hold you up against the light

Speak the truth and say goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

[Outro]

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

Hold you up against the light

Speak the truth and say goodbye to you

Goodbye to you
