Lyrics

We were holding on, wind against our face
you were the wild one while I played it safe

You told me I was strong, yet I still can break
the hardest times were only tears away

You held my hand, I held my breath
running out the back door

You were my best friend, now this heart won't mend
You had everything worth fighting for

You held my hand, I held my breath
running out the back door

You were my best friend, now this heart won't mend
tell me what I'm fighting for?

Well, its a cold, cold world, when there's no give and take
no one saw you holding your white flag

With a soul so pure, one they couldn't break
God would never make such a beautiful mistake

You held my hand, I held my breath
running out the back door

You were my best friend, now this heart won't mend
You had everything worth fighting for

You held my hand, I held my breath
running out the back door

You were my best friend, now this heart won't mend
tell me what I'm fighting for?

And the sky still cries every day since you left
to the rivers where you swam

And the mountains call, but their sound falls deaf
upon the green grass where we ran
