The Bitter End by John Van Deusen Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I promise to let go will you take me in?
Sinking into an ocean of fire I breathe you out

[Pre-Chorus]
Why do you stay here waiting and waiting?
Don't you know I'm lost?
What if I lose sight? What if I falter?
Do you know the cost?

[Chorus]
Every time I fall you are there for me
You brush off my knees, tell me to run again
I may never know or guess at the reason
Why you'd stick around until the bitter end

[Verse 2]
I open my mind's eye, I see you floating there
Colors bind me to you
I cannot turn away
[Bridge]
Why do you stay here?
What if I lose sight?

[Outro]
Every time I fall you are there for me
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
You brush off my knees, tell me to run again
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
I may never know or guess at the reason
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
Why you'd stick around until the bitter end
Every time I fall you are there for me
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
You brush off my knees, tell me to run again
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
I may never know or guess at the reason
I fall down, you pick me up, I fall down, you pick me up, I...
Why you'd stick around until the bitter end
Why do you stay here?
What if I lose sight?
