Ooh, it's a sad song that has no end It's a bleeding heart that never mends Am I in a miracle we can still pretend After so long? Did the apple fall too far from the tree? Did we get lost in the space in between? But the roots that were buried so deep Will always be strong Too late for lullabies Too soon for it's alright But love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes and moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall Ooh, yeah Love burns when it's in the blood And God knows I burnt you the best I could I can't feel your words, please don't misunderstand We got it so wrong Yeah, the greatest gift that you ever gave to me You don't know your strength till you face defeat So when everything's just out of reach You keep holding on Too late for lullabies Too soon for it's alright But love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes and moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall We built a brick wall when it's all for nothing Only bridges will cross this divide We both know this road leads to nowhere There's nothing left for you to hide Too late for lullabies Too soon for it's alright But love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes and moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall Too late for lullabies Too soon for it's alright But love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes and moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall
