I'm standing at the top of a building
All I can see is the sky
The wind is blowing through my hair
I don't look down
That would be pointless
I know what I would see down there
Billions of faces looking up at me
Begging me to reconsider
A decision I'd already made
I walk to the edge of the building
I'm breathing slowly and deliberately
I can no longer be afraid
I spread my arms wide, I close my eyes
And by a sudden circumstance
I glance down and I see you
You are looking at me with your beautiful brown eyes
They hold me and don't let me go
You start your way toward the building and the crowd lets you through
For a second I reconsider my decision
Because I know you'll be up here soon
You'll try to save me like you did before
This time is different though
You said it yourself
You don't love me anymore
I hold my breath for a second
I try not to think of you
A single tear rolls down my cheek
I close my eyes I have to do this
I can't be held back
I feel so weak
I think back to all the good times we had
And the last time I fought with you.
I remember what you had said
I put my feet on the very edge
I close my eyes and start to fall
You take my wrist instead
You pull me up and away from my death
And into your arms once again
Your face and mine are inches part
I bury my face into your chest
And cry helplessly as you hold me
You were the one who broke my heart
Why have you come back?
Why couldn't you let me go?
You whisper in my ear that you love me still
I turn my face up towards yours
You kiss me lightly on the lips
I feel my heart starting to heal
Rain starts to come down over both of us and you hold me
You say that you'll never leave me again and take my hand in yours
I'll stay in that moment forever and forever I'll be with you
In the distance, thunder roars
