You said years from now
All this would fade
And we'd move on
But here I stay
Watching things come crashing down
Don't turn back now
Cause I can't accept when I am wrong
And I can't forget the nights you lost
Spent wishing, needing, praying, pleading
I'm no god and you're no savior
Well, I promised I would keep you warm
And watch you as you slept
But as soon as I lost sight of you
I fell down and I wept
And I promise you it hurts me more
To see you stop to cry
Because the only light I'll ever need
Is the sunlight in your smile
Your cells changed over twice
I wish words alone could save your life
But they don't, and that's fine
I wish I could stay forever
You know better than that
I don't care if it hurts
'Cause you loved me when I'm at my worst
And wishing, needing, praying, pleading
I'm no god and you're no savior
Well, I promised I would keep you warm
And watch you as you slept
But as soon as I lost sight of you
I fell down and I wept
And I promise you it hurts me more
To see you stop to cry
Because the only light I'll ever need
Is the sunburn in your smile
