Tenth Avenue North - Oh My Dear lyrics

rate me

I called you up, you were in *bed

Could* barely make out the words that you said

But you wanted to see me *instead so* I got dressed

Then I stepped out into the *snow

And* walked for a mile or so

Felt the rush of blood come from the *cold in* my chest

Well, you finally came to the door

*And* we talked for an hour or more

Until I asked if you would stay up until *four*

*And* you said that's fine

But you said "there's something I have to say, and I can't *because I'm just* so afraid"

And so I held you as you started to shake, that night

Oh, my *dear I'll* wait for you

Grace tonight will pull us *through

Until* the tears have left your eyes

Until the *fears* can sleep at night

Until the demons that you're scared *of disappear* inside

Until *this guilt* begins to crack

And the weight falls from your back

Oh, my *dear I'll* keep you in my arms tonight

You slowly lifted your head from your hands

You said "I just don't think *that* you'll understand

You'll never look at me that way again

If you *knew* what I *did"*

And so your tears fell and melted the snow

You told me secrets nobody had known

But I never loved you *more even* though

Now I knew what you did

Oh, my *dear I'll* wait for you

Grace tonight will pull us through

Oh, my *dear I'll* wait for you

*And grace* tonight will pull us through

Until the tears have left your eyes

Until the *fears* can sleep at night

Until the demons that you're scared *of disappear* inside

Until *this guilt* begins to crack

And the weight falls from your back

Oh, my *dear I'll* keep you in my *arms

Until* the tears have left your eyes

Until the *fears* can sleep at night

Until the demons that you're scared *of disappear* inside

Until *this guilt* begins to crack

And *the* weight falls from your back

Oh, my *dear I'll* keep you in my arms tonight

I'll keep you in my arms tonight
