lyrics

She lived happily ever after
though she never fixed her toys
she didn't see a reason
once she'd stopped loving the boy

she didn't have to breathe last night
in fact I think she forgot
she lost her wind to the dream she had
and the change she could not stop

Go to her swiftly
go to her softly
and take her slow
there's a sunrise at the waterline
it doesn't take two to hold
her only regret
her only confession
she was so afraid to let go
she wanted to hold the magic that
it doesn't take
doesn't take two to hold

It always bothered the misfits
that she called her closest friends
they way she'd fold up and swallow herself
and call it a means to an end

when the revelation came to her
it was cool and crystal clear
she needed to erupt and radiate
and she couldn't do that with him near

Go to her swiftly
go to her softly
and take her slow
there's a sunrise at the waterline
it doesn't take two to hold
her only regret
her only confession
she was so afraid to let go
she wanted to hold the magic that
it doesn't take
doesn't take two to hold

Now all that she's left with
is a memory of his face
she wouldn't trade a single minute they shared
for another moment in that space

She wouldn't say it was easy
wouldn't say she didn't fear the fall
but she would rather she had lost her sight
than never had his love at all

Go to her swiftly
go to her softly
and take her slow
there's a sunrise at the waterline
it doesn't take two to hold
her only regret
her only confession
she was so afraid to let go
she wanted to hold the magic that
it doesn't take
doesn't take two to hold

Hop in my whiskey ride and I'm driving...
