  • Yeah, yeah

    Baby, please try to forgive me
    Stay here don't put out the glow
    Hold me now don't bother
    If every minute it makes me weaker
    You can save me from the man that I've become, oh yeah

    Looking back on the things I've done
    I was trying to be someone
    I played my part, kept you in the dark
    Now let me show you the shape of my heart

    Sadness is beautiful, loneliness that's tragical
    So help me I can't win this war, oh no
    Touch me now, don't bother
    If every second it makes me weaker
    You can save me from the man I've become

    Looking back on the things I've done
    I was trying to be someone (trying)
    I played my part, kept you in the dark (in the dark)
    Now let me show you the shape of my heart

    I'm here with my confession
    Got nothing to hide no more
    I don't know where to start
    But to show you the shape of my heart

    I'm lookin' back on things I've done
    I never wanna play the same old part
    I'll keep you in the dark (keep you in the dark)
    Now let me show you the shape of my heart
    Looking back on the things I've done
    I was trying to be someone (trying to be someone)
    I played my part, kept you in the dark
    Now let me show you the shape of my heart (now let me show you the shape of my heart)
    Looking back on the things I've done
    I was trying to be someone
    I played my part, kept you in the dark
    Now let me show you the shape of

  • Eduardo Hdz. from MexicoUnderrated song, very emotional. The chorus is stuck in my mind forever. The key change and Nick hitting that high note at the end takes you to a magic place.
