lyrics

take me or leave me baby
take me or leave me baby
i know she's going places i ain't ever been
i know she's going places i ain't ever been

now all i see are sidewalks and castles
the memories they stand so fragile
all i see are sidewalks and castles
the words sit on my tongue like ashes, oh no

i been thinking of
the lonely times
before i knew your love
the calmness in your kind
the sickness in my head
the shiver in your voice it says,
"hold on to your last breath
before the fall
before the fall"

take me or leave me baby
take me or leave me baby
i know she's going places i ain't ever been
i know she's going places i ain't ever been

now all i see are sidewalks and castles
the memories they stand so fragile
all i see are sidewalks and castles
the words sit on my tongue like ashes, oh no

i been thinking of
the lonely times
before you kissed me love
with your sweetest lullaby
now the sickness in my head
the shiver in your voice it says,
"hold on to your last breath
before the fall
before the fall"

warm me when the cold comes
warm me when the cold comes
warm me when the cold comes

hold me when we jump love
hold me when we jump love
hold me when we jump love

take me or leave me baby
take me or leave me baby
i know she's going places i ain't ever been
i know she's going places i ain't ever been

now all i see are sidewalks and castles
the memories they stand so fragile
all i see are sidewalks and castles
the words sit on my tongue like ashes, oh no

i been thinking of
the lonely times
before i knew your love
the calmness in your kind
the sickness in my head
the shiver in your voice it says,
"hold on to your last breath
before the fall"

we'll watch the leaves lay rest to ground
before the fall
we'll dread the winter coming 'round
before the fall
it could be ages 'till we're down
before the fall
i will hold you, i will hold you in my arms
in my arms
oh, in my arms
in my arms
