Boomerang of expectations back to bite the hand
You balk at what you should've known it
Now we're holding our breath and I'm trying to hold on to you
And I give my love to you
Never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now
A land mine doesn't take much to trigger the blast
You sing 'Heroes' when you're all alone
Never was a love that I could not replace until now
And I give my love to you

You've got nothing to lose, but me
You can face me now or you can shrug and act surprised
Feel all along my faults and defenses at last
And you, so brave
You lose me, love me, choose me
Never was a love that I could not replace until now
You lose me, love me, choose me
And you, you walk away too soon
Either way someday you'll see yourself reflected in my eyes
Was it that you wanted that I didn't understand
You sing 'Heroes' when you're all alone
But I, I give my love to you
Yellow, green or red, is it love or desire
And you, so brave
You balk at what you should have known it
And you, you walk away too soon
Someday you'll dismantle the colored wires
You've got nothing to lose, but me
Winter was hard, we came out with our hearts frozen through
Never was a world I couldn't sing into place until now
And I, I give my love to you
