lyrics

I have been counting
The steps I’ve been taking
To keep you an arms distance away
I have been tracing the floors I’ve been pacing
Trying to keep this at bay

Baby ooo, maybe I want to love you right
Baby, ooo maybe we all need cracks to let in the light

Who am I kidding
I have been falling
All the way from the highest branch
I must refrain from the sound of your name
I fear I want to take hold of your hand

Baby ooo, maybe I want to love you right
Baby, ooo maybe we all need cracks to let in the light

I have to keep part of me tucked away
Lock and key
Throw my worries to the wind or lose them at sea
I am in trouble now darling don’t you see?
That you have found the key

Baby, I think maybe that I want to love you right
Baby, ooo maybe we all need cracks to let in the light

Emily Barnes
