Don’t be so hard onyourself, You weren’t always likethis. I know you have to pretend, That you’re heart is cold And your skin is thick. And where you are, Is where you’ve trained to be. It’s just so hard to watch over, Such a cruel leader when you where Such a kind lover to me.
But then she came along, And brought out something, I haven’t seen in so long.
She lights you up like I did. She makes you fight like I did, She makes you love like I did. She’s took your heart like I did, She’s took a part like I did, She’s fallen in love like I did. Only I can’t have you anymore.
And oh, how much you have changed, No longer the little grounder girl I knew. Oh, how far you’ve came, With thousands of our people counting on you. I remember our winter nights, We would watch the December sun. Yet here I am, a ghost by your eyes, Whilst you’re fighting guns with guns, Fighting the person you’ve become.
But then she came along, And brought out something in you, Something I hadn’t seen in so long.
She lights you up like I did, She makes you fight like I did, She makes you love like I did. She’s took your heart like I did, She’s took a part like I did, She’s fallen in love like I did. Only I can’t have you anymore.
I hear your prayers at night, You ask what I would do if I was there, What would I do? You can’t feel my hand on your shoulder, You can’t hear me whisper, I’m proud of you.
But she lights you up like I did, She makes you fight like I did, She makes you love like I did. She’s took your heart like I did, She’s took a part like I did, She’s fallen in love like I did.
