I saw storms on your skyline
Bb F
Wading out into the rip tide

Swearing only you can face this

On your own, but don’t you leave me here
[Pre-chorus]

So hold for a minute, I’m standing at the summit
Dm Bb
A long way down, but I’m ready to run it
F Bb C
I knew from the moment that I would never let you go, I’ll...
[Chorus]

I’ll hold you close while you find that closure
Bb F
Hate to see you with the world on your shoulders

Lay it on, lay it on me darling
C
Lay it on, lay it on me darling

When you run, you won’t run all alone

Have I told you that I love you so?

Lay it on, lay it on me darling
C
Lay it on, lay it on me darling

You said, said that you could take it

I know that smile that you’re faking

Same one I faked until you arrived

So hold for a minute, I’m standing at the summit
Dm Bb
A long way down, but I’m ready to run it
