High Enough to Carry You Over Songtext
von CHVRCHES

No more barricades, slowly diffusing
I′ll be leaving now, nobody's losing
If you could play your part, stay in resistance
Every fault would fade into the distance

Run if you like
All the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can′t deny and I can't deny

Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would′ve given you up
Never would′ve given you up, you up
If you only hadn't given me up
Only hadn′t given me up, me up


And I never would've given you up
Never would′ve given you up, you up
If you only hadn't given me up
Only hadn′t given me up, me up

No more clarity, only confusion
Every focused thought, just an illusion
If I could see you now, if you would listen
Every fault would fade into the distance

Run if you like
All the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny

Open your eyes
I′ll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would′ve given you up
Never would've given you up, you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
Only hadn't given me up, me up


And I never would′ve given you up
Never would've given you up, you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
Only hadn't given me up, me up

You are

If I only hadn't given you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
And you are
If I only hadn′t given you up
Losing my breath and leaving the rest

Run if you like
All the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can′t deny

Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would′ve given you up
Never would've given you up, you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
Only hadn't given me up, me up

And I never would've given you up
Never would′ve given you up, you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
Only hadn't given me up, me up

And I never would′ve given you up
Never would've given you up, you up
If you only hadn′t given me up
Only hadn't given me up, me up

And I never would′ve given you up
Never would've given you up, you up
If you only hadn't given me up
Only hadn′t given me up
