Hey big shoes, once I was young like you
I loved like you, opened my heart like you
Well don't be scared just cos you've been stripped bare
You feel things that most people never do
Hold my hand just like you used to do
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Throw it up, baby you're all mixed up
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
On days like this you wonder what true love is
Does it even exist, the kiss, the prince, the story for the kids?
But that same big heart that right now is hurting so hard
Is the ladder you'll climb when you touch the stars
Hold my hand just like you used to do
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Throw it up, baby you're all mixed up
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Show me that dreamer I love
Let me see the fire in your eyes
Let the moment pass, sleep a while here in my arms
Cos I'm not leaving
Hold my hand just like you used to do
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Throw it up, baby you're all mixed up
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
