Couldn't let you love me
Had to put it in the soil
Buried it and gave you to the night
Didn't see it growing
Then you wrapped me in its leaves
Just in time for us to be torn asunder

Such a beautiful heart
Such a beautiful soul
Led me to your house
Lead me home

(Didn't see it growing; didn't see it growing)
(Then you wrapped me in its leaves)

How long can we go on with just the remnants?
Not fit to build a shelter but I'm trying all the same

Couldn't let you love me
Now I've put that in the soil
Buried it and mourned into the night:
"Such a beautiful heart
Such a beautiful soul
Lead me to your house
Lead me home"
"Such a beautiful heart
Such a beautiful soul
Lead me to your house
Lead me home"

How long can we go on with just the remnants?
Not fit to build a shelter but I'm trying all the same

I've lain beside you
You've made me content
It was always fleeting

(Didn't see it growing; didn't see it growing)
(Then you wrapped me in its leaves)

Couldn't let you love me
Now I've put that in the soil

"Such a beautiful heart
Such a beautiful soul
Lead me to your house
Lead me home"

Buried all the times that I was hesitant
Buried all the times that I was hesitant
Buried all the times that I was hesitant
