If you were here, I'd never have a fear So go on live your life But I miss you more than I did yesterday You're so far away So c'mon show me how 'Cause I mean this more than words can ever say Oh baby here comes the sound I took a train outta New Orleans

I'd tell you what I'd do I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make them sing for you If the stars were mine If the birds were mine If the world was mine I'd give them all to you I'd pluck them down right from the sky And leave it only blue I would

Ah yeah, yeah, yeah Redemption's on your mind when you think about me 'Cause I'm searchin' for these words to say to you right now Ah please give me time Yeah, I get it Why would I say all these things to have you feelin' a way?

What words just can't convey Are not the same Don't give up, don't let the magic leave us Healed, or are you still just reeling? Are you fine? Have you found A way to escape? Are you there, just because I need you?

It will come And when you're ready for her mercy And you're worthy Feel her beauty flowing through you She will unbind you, set the word free Mercy, mercy When you're kneeling through the hours And you're doubting your given powers When you're sneaking

So give it all, I give it all, We give it all, This is the reason why I sing, It's these reasons that belong to me Break through the undertow, Your hands I can't seem to find, Pollution burns my tongue, Cough the words I can't speak so I stall myself

Most of us have given up On these words that all sound the same But I am still willing to believe If you have done all that you can

Let me be the one, Under the silver stars, Right where he broke your heart. Girl you know, I'd give you everything. I want to hold your hand, And say the words he never said. I'll make you promises you can believe. Telling you it's alright

Until the end starts Nobody's perfect (I know it ain't easy giving up your heart) Trust me I've learned it To hold in your arms So come on and give me the chance I don't know why I'm scared Every feeling, every word I've imagined it all

But lets forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell him I'm fine And to show, I overcome the blow I learned to take it well I only wish my words could just convince myself That it just wasn't real Operator, could
