Hello, where have you been? You're about to miss it all I would give anything to hear you call, if I'm honest Sometimes, it's all that I can do to keep my head up high I'm like a book with empty pages inside Cold wind blowing through the window shade I'm calling what else can I say? I'm like a billboard in the sky How many times you've passed me by, you've passed me by? You're like a blinking neon light How many times I've bought your lies Sometimes I wonder why, if I'm honest My life, it's not as easy as I make you think I close my eyes and I try not to blink, if I'm honest Cold wind blowing through the window shade Fallin' faster each and every day I'm like a billboard in the sky How many times you've passed me by, you've passed me by? You're like a blinking neon light How many times I've bought your lies? Sometimes I wonder why Come back, come back Please don't leave me all alone Come back, come back I'm right here Come back, come back I'm willing if you are I'm like a billboard in the sky How many times you've passed me by, you've passed me by?

You saw through me All this time I'd forgotten People are kind I was hurting And you knew So you showed me What to do You said, "I will listen Tell it all When you're finished We'll talk more" But I didn't know how So we took it in turns And to my surprise We found my words Feet firm on the ground We stood hand in hand The world seemed to tell me That I have a plan Together, we sang "I'm ready, now" Something new Something strange Ten feet taller I had changed I believe you I'm not wrong Oh, it suits me To feel strong You said, "I will listen Tell me it all You don't like the ending Then we'll find one that's yours" Oh, how did you know That's all we need? A promise of hope Is enough to feel free Feet firm on the ground We stood hand in hand And I told the world That I have a plan Together, we sang "I'm ready, now"
