For every second you've been talking I've been trying to count the lines around your face
Cause I don't know if I'll ever be this close again
* I feel like I'm just wasting time before you pull the trigger
It's the drawing of the line, it's my ghost you're going to give up
Got your made up mind it hurts to see you're alright
When I'm not alright So if you're calling it a night
** Oh please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, you're breaking my heart
Oh please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, I'm falling apart Have mercy, my heart
I felt you slip away so slowly I lost my grip a little more each time we touched
I've got no hope, I guess I'll never get it back again
( * , ** )
Somehow I can't let go But I know I've been holding on too long
Somehow I can't let go But I know I've been holding on too long
( ** )
Oh mercy my heart
