What do i do now? Where do i go from here? im standing alone, i'm full of fear. But then it hits me, you've been there all along, even when i hurt you, even when i was wrong. Now i run to you with my heart broken in two. You hold me and tight it feels so right to be with you because now i know im back to my roots
