Lyrics William Beckett

William Beckett

Cracks In The Ceiling

We laid in bed and talked 'til 3 A.M.

Now I'm restlessly counting cracks in the ceiling

We fooled around,

We were spontaneous

Now it's calendars and inconvenience

Caught in the current tearing us apart,

But I'll keep on swimming until my arms give out

Cause I can't let you go

Cause I can't let you go

Can't watch you drift away

No matter what it takes

I'll bring you back to shore

I can't let you go

Your smile could fill a room with radiance

Now it's barely bright enough to light the hallway

There was a time when we were dangerous

But now we play it cool and tell ourselves it's okay

Caught in the current tearing us apart

But I'll keep on swimming until my arms give out

Cause I can't let you go

Cause I can't let you go

Can't watch you drift away

No matter what it takes

I'll bring you back to shore

I can't let you go

I want to always feel the way I did

When you caught me by surprise for the first time

Cause I can't let you go

Cause I can't let you go

Can't watch you drift away

No matter what it takes

I'll bring you back to shore

I can't let you go
