Lyrics Broken Bells – The Changing Lights

What did the storm wash away
Are you bailing out, out of the plans we’ve already made
It won’t bother me now, and you know I’ll be okay
You gotta lead your life, but you’re not sure you know the way

Well, you want to walk in white,
You wanna sin but you’re too shy
So the candle just keeps burning down on you

Chorus:
My cards are on the table, I’m here tonight
But I don’t need anything from you
Down on the Bowery, the changing lights
And I’ll still be waiting here for you

I saw that look on your face
You don’t need me now, and sometimes you wonder if it’s all
Just another mistake, and why can’t you just walk away?
You gotta measure the cost, what’ve you gained, what have you lost

But I often wonder why,
You wanna win but you won’t fight
So the candle just keeps burning down on you

Chorus 2x
