It's been so long since I had the nerve to give and inch,

I'm always a step ahead of you.

No matter what words are said in arguments,

We both know we'll make it through.


That's good enough for me now;

Your arms are my only safe ground.


[Chorus:] 

I've said some things I may regret.

Can we just forgive and forget.

You've said some things you may regret,

So let's store this mending in our memory now. 


My mind drifts, swirls in circles like my fists.

Your mind games are the living end of me.

Don't paint this picture to be one sided,

When fault rests on both our hands.


That's good enough for me now;

Your arms are my only safe ground.


[Chorus]


I've been close to backing out of all we've made, 

Oh I've been close to leaving.

[x3]


[Chorus]


Now your only chance is the art of recovery.
