[Verse 1]
When I tried to love
It was just a song
Something I could not say
Couldn't call it off
Couldn't make it last
So, I took the hard way

[Verse 2]
Something that you said
I could not forget
Set it into motion
Hiding as a glow
Quiet and so slow
Shattered my illusion

[Refrain]
If I only knew
Half as much as you
I would be amazing, hazy

[Verse 3]
If I stop to be
Long enough to see
The life and death of one day
Heavy in my heart
Honey in my head
When I took the hard way

[Verse 4]
If I lost your hand
I know I could stand
Without your protection
Just because I know
Doesn't mean I'll go
It would be the hard way
