lyrics

Heavy heart don’t ever change
Untether and alone
I need your love next to mine
To colour me and give me hope

A serenade
A requiem
For the love you pushed to the side
Its better saved
Than far away

But always seems to be so hard
I’m afraid of losing everything
And I never learnt how to feel so sad
I’m moving forward in reverse as you go past

Heavy heart don’t ever fade
Into a place that I can’t reach
I can feel your love slip away
In pride and shame and waste

A serenade
A requiem
For the love you pushed to the side
Its better saved
Than far away

But always seems to be so hard
I’m afraid of losing everything
And I never learnt how to feel so sad
I’m moving forward in reverse as you go past
