lyrics

When I was young, I never thought I could come undone
I never thought I could come undone when I was young

& When I was old I thought my story would be told
I thought my story would be told when I was old

If I was chained I would become a hurricane
I would become a hurricane if I was chained

And when I was free, the whole world would stay with me
The world would stay with me when I was free

Now your skin and bones strain as you take me by the hand
and I paste on a smile as you come back to land
I hope you know that when our lives overlapped
You grabbed me by the heart
Grabbed me by the heart

When I was young I never thought I could come undone
I never thought I could come undone when I was young
Now that I'm old and my mind's already failed me
Remember what I was
Remember what I was, oh...

Your skin and bones strain as you take me by the hand
and I paste on a smile as you come back to land
I hope you know that when our lives overlapped
You grabbed me by the heart
Grabbed me by the heart
