You caught me when I couldn't stand on my own two feet
You took my hand when I couldn't walk on my own
You held together the fragments of my heart and the pieces of my dreams
And I wanted you to be mine alone
Why couldn't you be mine?

You were there when everything crashed down around me
Sheltered me and held me until my life was still as stone
But now you left me sitting here, vulnerable and weak
How the hell do I survive?
And why couldn't you just be mine?

When I remember the way you kissed my face
Or your arms around me, the warmest embrace
I just can't help but lose my mind
I can't stop crying, I'm frozen inside

I was lost in your eyes
You saved me from myself when I was alone in my own mind
I thought that I had found the one thing that couldn't let me down
But now you've left and nothing's left to help me carry on
I just can't seem to hold on anymore

You found me when I couldn't stand to stand on my own feet
I was hurt and I was miserable, I felt so damn alone
You made me smile, and you healed my heart, you lit up my dreams
You then became mine and mine alone
Your heart, it was mine

You made the sunshine always glow warmly around me
Kept me warm and held me till I could be on my own
And now I'm aching for those days when you were here with me
Keeping my heart alive
Why couldn't you just be mine again?

When I remember the way you lifted me high
Your heart around me, my head in the sky
I just can't help but lose my mind
I can't stop crying, I'm frozen inside

I was lost in your eyes
You saved me from myself when I was alone inside my own mind
I thought that I had found the one thing that couldn't let me down
But now you've left and nothing's left to help me carry on
I just can't seem to hold on anymore

I was lost in your eyes
You saved me from myself when I was alone inside my own mind
I now know that I had found the one thing that only let me down
Cuz now you've left and nothing's left to help me carry on
I just can't seem to hold on anymore

Keep me
From feeling
This burning
This aching
I'm falling
I'm drowning
Help me up
I need you here
I'm alone

Why couldn't you be mine?

I was lost in your eyes
You saved me from myself when I was alone inside my own mind
I thought that I had found the one thing that couldn't let me down
But now you've left and nothing's left to help me carry on
I just can't seem to hold on anymore

I was lost in your eyes
You saved me from myself when I was alone inside my own mind
I now know that I had found the one thing that only let me down
Cuz now you've left and nothing's left to help me carry on
I just can't seem to hold on anymore
I've fallen back on the floor
