Lyrics
[intro]
[verse]
I never meant to be the one who slipped away
I thought I’d fall apart before you did
With me the question was how long to stay
We took a chance on love and called it real
Every time you reached for me, I held my breath
The things you whispered still won’t let me rest
I thought we’d finally beat the odds that night
But love has a way of changing hands
I held it in, I let it pass
[pre-chorus]
I thought there’d always be more time
Now every word I never asked
Is heavy on my mind
[chorus]
Can anyone help me save my heart?
Hold it steady, keep it from the fall
It’s been breaking for so long
I don’t know how much longer my heart can hold on
I wanna tell you now
Before the sun sets on my heart
This is my heart’s regret
[verse]
I still see us talking like we knew the way
Making plans we couldn’t understand
We painted futures in the light of youth
Believed love alone would make us stand
I hear your voice in songs we used to play
Feel your absence every time they end
I never thought I’d have to say your name
Like someone I once knew back then
I should’ve said what I never said
I should’ve stayed instead of run
[pre-chorus]
Now every road inside my head
Leads back to where we begun
[chorus]
Can anyone help me save my heart?
Hold it steady, keep it from the fall
It’s been breaking for so long
I don’t know how much longer my heart can hold on
I wanna tell you now
Before the sun sets on my heart
This is my heart’s regret
[bridge]
Maybe in another life I’d make you stay
We’d keep our promises, not fade away
I was all in, just too afraid
You were the truth I couldn’t say
Some loves don’t leave, they just remain
In the life we never lived
And I still feel you when I close my eyes
Like you never really left
[chorus]
Can anyone help me save my heart?
Hold it steady, don’t let it break
I don’t wanna let go too soon
But I don’t know how much more I can take
I wanna tell you now
Before the sun sets on my heart
This is my heart’s regret
I don’t wanna let go
But loving you was never a mistake
Just my heart’s regret
