Lyrics
"Couldn't I see"
(Verse 1)
And I wouldn't be here if I
Knew how to let go
And I wouldn't be here if you
Could just hold your own
(Verse 2)
Take me to the water, take me
Into your escape
Take me all the way down into my own mistake
(Chorus)
Couldn't I see
Couldn't I see
The strings tied so tightly around me
Couldn't I see
Couldn't I see
The way you were moving me
(Verse 3)
Show me a picture, show me
Part of your design
Show another side of you that's
So hard to find
(Verse 4)
Sell me a moment, come on
Sell me your heart
I'm already there
And you've already pulled mine apart
(Chorus)
Couldn't I see
Couldn't I see
The strings tied so tightly around me
Couldn't I see
Couldn't I see
The way you were moving me
