Wooden Stairs

Hold your arms out to me
 And I will come eventually
 I'm hopin' for some time on the other side
 Some things just aren't meant to be
 That's the line that sets me free
 Free of all those maybes, buts, inside
 If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again
 Bury myself in your skin and hair again
 Feel myself fall into you again
 If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again
 Save the place next to you
 And I will come back very soon
 Once I pick the briars from my eyes
 Some things just aren't meant to be
 That's the line that handcuffed me
 There it sits, glowin' deep inside
 If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again
 Bury myself in your skin and hair again
 Feel myself fall into you again
 If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again
 Come and whisper in my ear
 On second thought, let's make it clearer
 Tie me to my mast and sing your song
 Some things just aren't meant to be
 But here's the part that puzzles me
 Why we never choose to sing along
 If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again
 Bury myself in your skin and hair again
 Feel myself fall into you again
 If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again
 Hold your arms out to me
 And I will come eventually
