Lyrics

[Verse 1] I know when your head hits the pillow at night And the world that you met keeps spinning a web for all the questions that you have When you love so much it gets hard When you love so much it gets hard [Verse 2] Do you know that I'd hold you in my arms forever if I could? Even when you grow much taller than me with your legs dangling to the ground When you love so much it gets hard When you love so much it gets harder [Chorus] I wish that I could be the roof to shield you from the rain But then you miss the way it cools you down again [Verse 3] You can look at a tree and see colors in it that I never knew The crack in the sidewalk that we pass by every day Will always remind me of you, some things do stay the same When you love so much it gets hard When you love so much it gets harder [Chorus] I wish that I could be the shoes you wear to win a race But then you miss how good it can feel to lose with grace And I wish I could be your wings but you would never learn to fly So I'll let go, take off, come home again sometime
