  • Say, the lights are really low enough to play,
    Would you catch me when I'm falling down?
    And all alone, alone and if,
    You try to make the most of this,
    And you said you'd always love me,
    Then you made me walk away.

    And would you stay right here?
    When I tell you,
    That someone out there loves you.
    If you stay right here,
    Well I'd tell you,
    That someone out there loves you after all.

    Sometimes it's though it's easier to fall,
    Would you catch this and then pick this off the floor,
    and in a moment,
    if you're walking out the door I'd stop you,
    And I'll let you burn,
    and if you'd turn to me I'd say this,

    would you stay right here?
    When I tell you,
    That someone out there loves you.
    If you stay right here,
    Keep attacking you,
    That someone out there loves you.

    Is there no one, no one out there?
    Is there no one who, no one who cares?
    And if no one. no one out there?
    Is there no one who, no one who cares?

    And would you decimate the stars then,
    When you go?

    And if you stay right here,
    When I tell you,
    That someone out there loves you.
    Stay right here,
    Keep attacking you,
    That someone out there loves you.

    No one, no one out there,
    Is there no one who, no one who cares?
    And if no one, no one out there,
    Is there no one who, no one who cares? Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
