[Verse 1]
Miles and miles on my own
Warm with shame, I follow on
A language to find hard to hear
Not to understand, just disappear

[Pre-Chorus]
To hold your heart, to hold your hand
Would be to me the greatest thing
To hold your heart, hold your hand
Would be to me the bravest thing

[Chorus]
Could you take my place and stand here?
I do not think you'd take this pain
You'll be on your knees and struggle under the weight
Oh, the truth would be a beautiful thing
Oh, the truth is a beautiful thing

[Verse 2]
I wear another thought of you
There's so much home I give to you
Hide you somewhere they don't know
Deep in my call you know you have a throne

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold your heart, hold your hand
Would be to me the greatest thing
To hold your heart, to hold your hand
Would be to me the bravest thing
[Chorus]
Could you take my place and stand here?
I don't think you'll take this pain
You'll be on your knees and struggle under the weight
Oh the truth would be a beautiful thing
Oh the truth is a beautiful thing
