Angus & Julia Stone - Somehow

I tell you that I want you
That I've loved you for so long now
I stand before you
My eyes, they fall to the ground
I am a coward here
In these feelings I've found

But I want to be braver
I won't play you like a card in my hand
I want to be real
So you know where I stand

Somehow
This day is not mine to break
And I must learn now
There are some things I cannot take

Somehow
This time is not mine to choose
And I must learn now
Sometimes it's okay to lose

Desire
It's burning my heart
Desire
It's tearing this old house apart

But it feels so good
It feels so bad
It feels so good
Why do I feel so sad?

I wouldn't change a thing
I don't need to survive
I wouldn't change a thing
I'm gonna burn alive

I'll make you a tea now
You're folding your arms
I'm feeling empty
I'm feeling alarmed

But I'm gonna stay right here
I have found something new
Out in the darkness all alone
But with the light of loving you

Somehow
This day is not mine to break
And I must learn now
There are some things I cannot take

Somehow
This time is not mine to choose
And I must learn now
Sometimes it's okay to lose

Desire
It's burning my heart
Desire
It's tearing this old house apart

But it feels so good
It feels so bad
Darling, it feels so good
Why do I feel so sad?

I wouldn't change a thing
I don't need to survive
I wouldn't change a thing
I'm gonna burn alive

I wouldn't change a thing
I don't need to survive
I wouldn't change a thing
I'm gonna burn alive
