Canton Lyrics

This cold weather
It gives me the shivers
Reminds me of the time that has slipped away
The years have been a friend to you
The smart young kids have nothing honest
In the words they say
So take the pictures down
And disconnect the phone
Wish I believed you when you said we all die alone
Just let me be now
This story's old
And I'm shaking
I bet you walk away

We never knew what we were up against
With our backs against the wall
And I don't know if we'll ever talk again
If I pick you up
Promise you won't fall

Let's go on with our own lives
Were your last words
And I'm supposed to think this was worth the wait
We've grown out of telling lies
And we've moved on
To making promises we know we'll break
Just let me be now
This story's old
And I'm shaking
I bet you walk away

We never knew what we were up against
With our backs against the wall
And I don't know if we'll ever talk again
If I pick you up
Promise you won't fall
Promise you won't fall

We never knew what we were up against
We never knew what we were up against
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
And I don't know if we'll ever talk again
And I don't know if we'll ever talk again
If I pick you up
Promise you won't fall
If I pick you up
Promise you won't fall

We never knew what we were up against
With our backs against the wall
And I don't know if we'll ever talk again
If I pick you up
Promise you won't fall
