[Intro]
I've been living on the edge of a cloud, for 6 months and 7 days
But all the effort I've been holding on with, it doesn't go both ways,
Oh, and what's a girl to do when her man can't hold on, but can't let go
[Verse 1]
I've been living with a newfound joy, for 6 days and 7 hours
And every time I try to hide it, I remember his smile
Oh, but I keep telling myself to be careful with my heart this time
I've been living at the top of the world, with no cares for 18 days.
He treats me like a queen, and buys me every shiny thing.
Oh, but I can't help but feel that it seems too good to be true
[Chorus]
But appearances can only last for so long,
Before the truth comes crashing down,
You know exactly how to show a girl what she wants to see,
But I will never know you
[Verse 2]
I've been living at a steady pace, no complaints, for 2 months and 7 days
And all the reasons for the tears, with him, I can erase
I've never felt so tied down, but with the fear of drifting out, I guess I can't complain
[Chorus]
But appearances can only last for so long,
Before the truth comes crashing down,
You know exactly how to show a girl what she wants to see
But I will never know you
[Outro]
I've been living on the edge of a cloud, for 6 months and 7 days
But all the effort I've been holding on with, it doesn't go both ways,
Oh, and what's a girl to do when her man can't hold on, but can't let go
He can't let go,
I can't let go...
