You pick up the phone
|
Tell me that you're so alone
|
And you don't feel like living today
|
|
I put the coffee on
|
It's gonna be a long, long night
|
But maybe this will be the night
|
When the dam breaks
|
|
You let me in and you shoo-ed me out
|
I wanna help you but I don't know how
|
|
To reach you, I wish I could breach you
|
I'm doing all that I can, I'm trying to understand
|
I'm outside of the fire, holding out my hand
|
Trying to reach you, oh
|
|
You hang on to the ledge
|
Like it's your best friend
|
I'd like pull you in from
|
Out of the rain, out of the pain
|
|
But I can't reach you, I wish I could breach you
|
I'm doing all that I can, I'm trying to understand
|
I'm outside of the fire, holding out my hand
|
Trying to reach you
|
|
It's like you turned out the lights
|
And I'm walking in the dark
|
Just trying to get to where you
|
Oh where you are
|
|
I'm just trying to reach you
|
'Cause I don't wanna lose you
|
Oh, won't you let me get close to you?
|
'Cause there's nothing I won't do, no
|
Nothing I won't do
|
|
To reach you, I wish I could breach you
|
I'm doing all that I can, I'm trying to understand
|
I'm outside of the fire, holding out my hand
|
Trying to reach you
|
|
I'm just trying to reach you
|
I'm trying to reach you, yeah, yeah
|
Trying to reach you
|
|

|
Reach You
