I never meant to make you cry
A fool I was, I never meant to say goodbye
Can't you feel the pressure drop?
Can't you see the pressure's off?
Heaven's here in front of me,
I can't breath and I can't speak
Baby, I never realised....
As the days and nights roll on
I've prayed for these moments since the day I was born
but oh God, Baby I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.
I know I'm wrong, I know I was so blind
and worst of all I saw the tears, I saw you cry
Can't you feel the pressure drop?
Can't you see the pressure's off?
Heaven's here in front of me,
I can't breath and I can't speak
Baby I never realised.
As the days and nights roll on
I've prayed for these moments since the day I was born
but oh God, Baby, I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.
And you can build walls to surround you
but I'll tear down this world till I've found you
you're a treasure, believe me, I need you, come home.
As the days and nights roll on
I've prayed for these moments since the day I was born
but oh God, Baby I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.
And as time rolls on,
I've been fighting since the day I was born
but oh God, Baby I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Baby I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Baby I never realised
the joy till the joy was gone.....
