Petals by Libby Tidley Lyrics

Thought that we had something special
Something different and
I thought that you had those feelings too
But I guess you couldn't have

I didn't fight it when you lied right to my face
I just carried on
I didn't know how much it would hurt
When I turned around and saw the truth
For what it really was so now

I'll let these petals fall
And tangle in my strings
I'll raise my arms up to the sky
And pluck these feathers from my wings

I'll let these petals fall
And wash away my sins
Build up a barrier to keep you out
So I can't hurt again
I'll let these petals fall
And tangle in my strings
I'll raise my arms up to the sky
And pluck these feathers from my wings

I'll let these petals fall
And wash away my sins
Build up a barrier to keep you out
So I can't hurt again

I hoped that it was just something on your mind
That you didn't wanna talk about
I hadn't thought that you were the kind
To turn around and go back
On what we said we'd be

I didn't fight it when I saw you in her arms
I just walked away
You left me broken
Left me wounded
Now all I can do is stand on the roof and say

I'll let these petals fall
And tangle in my strings
I'll raise my arms up to the sky
And pluck these feathers from my wings
I'll let these petals fall
And wash away my sins
Build up a barrier to keep you out
So I can't hurt again

I'll let these petals fall
And tangle in my strings
I'll raise my arms up to the sky
And pluck these feathers from my wings

I'll let these petals fall
And wash away my sins
Build up a barrier to keep you out
So I can't hurt again
