[Verse 1]
You live with a halo 'round your head
This time you're leaving
This place where the walls are painted red
Freedom is what you need

[Chorus]
But if the world should ever fall apart around you
And if you're lost and barely breathing, I will find you
And carry you back home
I won't forsake the only love I've ever known
When you're out there on your own, oh

[Verse 2]
Dark clouds, they surround you in the sky
Rain falls when you're sleeping
When you're past the point of no return
I'll take away the hurt

[Chorus]
And if the world should ever fall apart around you
And if you're lost and barely breathing, I will find you
And carry you back home
I won't forsake the only love I've ever known
When you're out there
[Bridge]
And I will wait
However long it takes
Until you realize what you have been searching for
Was right here all along
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
When you've lost the only light you had to guide you
And you're cold and barely breathing, I will find you
And carry you back home
I won't forsake the only love I've ever known
(I won't forsake, oh, yeah)
And if the world should ever fall apart around you
(Why did you fall apart?)
And if you're lost and barely breathing, I will find you
(Yes, I will, yes, I will)
And carry you back home (And carry you back home)
I won't forsake the only love I've ever known
(The only love I've ever known)
When you're out there on your own
