Well I used to make the fire
Now I'm running out of flame
The closer I get the more it rains
And I won't change everything
To have you back again
But I can't keep everything the same.
They say it wont get harder
And I'm gonna be ok
But its just like me to go against the grain
And while I'm tied to your shoe string
And I'm breaking from the strain
Those damn things hold on like chains
Yeah, those damn things hold on like chains
Was I ever really, more than ordinary
Did you ever see me, like I saw you.
Was I ever really, more than ordinary
Did you ever need me, like I need you now
I need you now
If I was a liar I'd have a few more friends
The chances are my heart would never mend
And even though my conscience would come running back again
Doesn't really hurt to pretend,
No, it doesn't really hurt to pretend.
Was I ever really, more than ordinary
Did you ever see me, like I saw you
Was I ever really, more than ordinary
Did you ever need me like
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
Now I'm running out of flame
The closer I get the more it rains
And I won't change everything
To have you back again
But I can't keep everything the same.
They say it wont get harder
And I'm gonna be ok
But its just like me to go against the grain
And while I'm tied to your shoe string

I need you now
