[Verse 1]
This diamond's nothing but a rock,
If I could get back what I've lost.
I'd trade it all for one less night alone,
You took with you the world I know.
'Cause I was young and throwing stones,
That shattered all the glass that built this home.
[Pre-Chorus]
Give me a reason, a reason to stay,
I hear that train out in the distance,
And there'll be silence in a minute,
If you don't give me a reason,
A reason to live.
'Cause I don't know what's after this,
I'm praying I'll go where she is if you won't.
[Chorus]
Take me back,
Before my mind starts to wander,
And this dim light goes black.
Just take me back,
Before I close my eyes to see her,
And give up everything I have,
Just take me... Ahhhhhh
[Verse 2]
I'll rest my head against your chest,
And hold my breath for what comes next,
Hoping you won't leave me here again.
I tell them all that it's okay,
And I'll be fine but yesterday,
Your momma called and tears ran down my face.
[Pre-Chorus]
Give me a reason, a reason to stay,
I hear that train out in the distance,
And there'll be silence in a minute,
If you don't give me a reason,
A reason to live.
'Cause I don't know what's after this,
I'm praying I'll go where she is if you won't.
[Chorus]
Take me back,
Before my mind starts to wander,
And this dim light goes black.
Just take me back,
Before I close my eyes to see her,
And give up everything I have,
Just take me... Ahhhhhh
