Lyrics
I am not all yours, you are not all mine
We are not each others all the time
There's space that lies between, Your heart and mine
Space that must lie free, space that cannot die
But we try to fit in spaces where we're not meant to fit
Frustration on our faces and I can't get in
Chorus:
Well it hurts to know that I can't go where you're leading
And the pain it shows but I can't tell where you're bleeding
I've tried my best to understand
I try to fill the spaces the best I can
We've got all these holes in our hearts
From when people could not love us for who we are
Holes that leak the confidence, holes that leak the love
We pour into each other trying to fill up
And I go pouring in, but it keeps running out
I am empty now, I can't get in
Chorus
So what is it we have, but a word?
Spoken in a promise that everyone heard
A word I'll say again and again despite this holey heart
And offer arms to hold you through the lonely part
Chorus
