Breaking Ties

1. Oh when the cold wind blows
I feel it to the bone
Oh when you say you know
I feel I'm not alone.

And even though I may return
To empty places on my own
Where I remember everything you want me to forget
Then you provide the parachute
While I am falling like a stone
And I remember there's a life
That I have not lived yet.

[Chorus:]
You and I, truth and lies
I've been fooling myself too long
You and I, breaking ties
How could we be so right
And so wrong?

2. I hear the words you say
Your mouth against my skin
My world just falls away
You light me from within.

And even though I may return
To empty places on my own
Where I remember everything you want me to forget
Then you provide the parachute
While I am falling like a stone
And I remember there's a life
That I have not lived yet.

[Chorus]

Truth and lies
Breaking ties.

[Chorus]
