[Verse 1]
I go up when you go downwards
The pavement underneath our feet
You hold me down, you hold me down
Down enough that I can barely breathe
I go forward, so you go backwards
The distance growing in between
You let me down, you let me down
But every time you walk, I weep

[Chorus]
Oh my god, what a sad story
The two of us on a lonely road
I don't know what I wouldn't give
To get back, back in your arms
When the day is over

[Verse 2]
Ask me why I lied to you
Isn't it obvious you don't like the truth?
Hey, common sense won't cut us of the way
You'll know that I've been standing right before you
Scared to breathe in case you blow away
Any day

[Chorus]
Oh my god, what a sad story
The two of us on a lonely road
I don't know what I wouldn't give
To get back, back in your arms
When the day is over, yeah
Oh my god, what a sad story
The two of us on a lonely road
I don't know what I wouldn't give
To get back, back in your arms
When the day is over

[Bridge]
I'll go out while you go under
You're burning up and breaking in
You love me now, you love me more than ever
Now that I'm standing in the doorway
Prettier than I have ever been
When the day...

[Chorus]
Oh my god, what a sad story
The two of us on a lonely road
I don't know what I wouldn't give
To get back, back in your arms
When the day is over

Oh my god, what a sad story
The two of us on a lonely road
I don't know what I wouldn't give
To get back, back in your arms
When the day is over
