So I've done a mistake
And you've done one too many
But we can make it work
If we keep the pedals turning
You said that you weren't ready
And then you pushed me away
Only when you were feeling low
Was when you needed me to stay
I guess we couldn't hold on
The broken parts sharp
They tore us apart
Cut right through
I thought we were
Supposed to grow together
Guess I wasn't enough
Too early, too late
And you were a stubborn child
We both said things
We might someday regret
Right now I regret
Letting you go
But I can't cage a sparrow
So now I'll put your song
In my work-in-progress
Isn't it a pity that
You won't see it rise?
And I'll keep thinking of you
Every single moment
Saving pieces of our dreams
The mosaic of you and me
'Cause I guess we couldn't hold on
The broken parts sharp
They tore us apart
Cut right through
You made me believe we might grow together
Guess I couldn't see through
These glasses of red
And you were a stubborn child
We both said things
We might someday regret
And still, I regret
Letting you go
I won't cage the little sparrow
Oh now, I'll fix and I will sow
I'll study your alphabet
Every single word, every single mistake
Change the view of the world
Make it gentle and better
'Cause so many have fallen in this same battle
Shame you aren't with me
We could've done it together
Oh I was almost there
Then you shook the ladder
Alright have it your way
If you think you know better
My journey stays the same
It's just a little bit sadder
I guess we couldn't hold on
The broken parts sharp
They tore us apart
Cut right through
But finally the air is getting clearer
For me this weight is too heavy
Something I just won't carry
'Cause you weren't in love
I don't regret anything I said
No, not anymore
'Cause swallows fly away too
Sparrow
