lyrics

If you pick me up when I'm down I'll pick a song from my mind
and I hope it will be just the one that you need
And if you can't guarantee that you'll forever be
the one that will say those words that I'm longing to hear

When you tell me that your world stops spinning around
when I'm no longer around
Though I'm not the center of gravity,
can I at least be your center for a cup of tea?
while we talk 'bout everything
that are running through our minds
though it's getting colder in the world outside
I just think we found a perfect place to hide

Placed you up high on a pillar of gold
pushed the stars to the side, put the truth on hold
Painted a picture of you there in the sky
put a speech bubble there which I hoped would filled by these words

When you tell me that your world stops spinning around
when I'm no longer around
Though I'm not the center of gravity,
can I at least be your center for a cup of tea?
while we talk 'bout everything
that are running through our minds
though it's getting colder in the world outside
I just think we found a perfect place to hide
