Should I just walk away
If I'm failing
At the life you gave me?

And would these words remain
And maybe bring healing
Once more with feeling

'Cause I've seen the strong pushing tears from their eyes
And the last rites keeping the wounded alive
Baby, we're fine tonight


So come take my hand
Maybe you'll understand

The faster we run
The softer we land
But we won't change a thing

Gonna earn what we bring
You'll be my queen
And I'll be your king


We walk the promenade
Our throats tightening

Love's frightening
And dance the masquerade
Make believing

This time with feeling
'Cause I've seen the strong pushing tears from their eyes
Keeping the wounded alive


So come take my hand
Maybe you'll understand

The faster we run
The softer we land
But we won't change a thing

Gonna earn what we bring
You'll be my queen
And I'll be your king


So I wont walk away
From the life you gave me

Your heartbeat saved me

So come take my hand

We're gonna preach while we can
The stage has been set
And we're in demand


So come take my hand
Maybe you'll understand

The faster we run
The softer we land
But we won't change a thing

Gonna earn what we bring
You'll be my queen
And I'll be your king
