Should I just walk away,
If I'm failing,
At the life you gave me?
And would these words remain,
And maybe bring healing,
Once more with feeling

Cause I've seen the strong pushing tears from their eyes
And the last rites keeping the wounded alive,
Baby we're fine tonight.

So come take my hand,
Maybe you'll understand,
The faster we run,
The softer we land.
But we won't change a thing,
Gonna earn what we bring,
You'll be my queen,
And I'll be your king.

We walk the promenade,
Our throats tightening,
Love's frightening.
And dance the masquerade,
Make believing,
This time with feeling.

Cause I've seen the strong pushing tears from their eyes,
Keeping the wounded alive.

So come take my hand,
Maybe you'll understand,
The faster we run,
The softer we land.
But we won't change a thing,
Gonna earn what we bring,
You'll be my queen,
And I'll be your king.

So I won't walk away,
From the life you gave me.
Your heartbeat saved me.
So come take my hand,
We're gonna preach while we can.
The stage has been set,
And we're in demand.

So come take my hand,
Maybe you'll understand,
The faster we run,
The softer we land.
But we won't change a thing,
Gonna earn what we bring,
You'll be my queen,
And I'll be your king.
