[Verse 1]
We're falling skyward with heaven below
And you look tired and I think I know
'Cause I've been there when times were hard
And you stayed too

[Pre-Chorus]
She's only 23, how could she?
How could she know?

[Verse 2]
The mood it changed with the turn of tide
I'm scared of the dark and I know why
I gaze my stray and I catch your eyes
And I slip through

[Pre-Chorus]
She's only 23, how could she?
How could she know?

[Chorus]
And I've never known
This kind of fear before
Is this what it means
To be adored?

[interlude]

[Verse 3]
Falling skyward with heaven below
And you look tired and I think I know
'Cause I've been there when times were hard
This picture burns as I set it alight
What I can't see, there's no need, you're not mine
But now it's over, do you ask why
You stayed too?

[Chorus]
And I've never known
This kind of fear before
Is this what it means
To be adored?
[Outro]
(How could she?
How could she know?)
