Lyrics

Bilingual
Maybe it's always been us all along
You are the trees that I grow on
I am the leaves that die in the fall
You'll grow me again, but you're tired
You're tired
ย
Maybe it's always been us this whole time
You are the moon in the sky and I, the tide
I reach for you, but never quite high enough
You reach for me, but you're tired
You're tired
You're tired (you're tired)
ย
Maybe it's always been us all the while
Wherever you go, I'll follow your strides
I rush to you, your arms open wide
Lift me to the sun; at least you tried
(You tried, you tried)
Dry your eyes (you tried, you tried)
ย
You were my best friend a while ago (Did you try?)
A child should never feel like a chore (Did you try?)
Did it feel like sweeping the floor?
Taking care of me, did it make you tired?
(You tried, you tried, you tried)
Did it make you tired? (I'm tired, I tried)
