[Verse 1]

Tell my thoughts to resign

And lift you from my mind

I'm not ready I'm not strong enough

To cradle the weight of your love.

Just take a minute take a breath

Lay down your head on my sunken chest

I saw a flicker then just smoke

But as you left I was calling your name at the night.

[Hook 1]

I thought we were done

And young love would keep us young. [x2]

[Verse 2]

I thought we fell to the ground

I see you whimper with no sound

Open my mouth to breath some words of peace

But the silence gives nothing back to me.

So I'll be a shadow of the flame

I lent down to kiss you then erased my name

And I'll be a whisper on the wind

My hands are shaking from holding so tight for so long.

[Bridge]

The flame burnt out in our empty hands

But now I see it's got nothing to do

It's got nothing to do with you.

[Hook 1]

I thought we were done

And young love would keep us young. [x2]

[Hook 2 x2]

(Why do I keep falling) I thought we were done

(Why do I keep falling) and young love would keep us young.
