Lyrics

This song is for the painter
who lost both of her hands
And this song is for the wander
Who never came home again

And to all those w/ broken hearts
I know what you're going through
I had a true love once
But now they've gone and left me blue
So now I'd like to swim to the bottom of the ocean
Where I'll scream as loud as I can
Where there's no one I can frighten

So I'd do anything to cry
I'd do anything to cry
Let this pain fall from my eyes
And let time heal my insides

I shout out to my grandparents
I hope you find each other in heaven
And to all of my friends
Sorry I left you behind
And if I ever come back home
Would you pour me a glass of wine

So I'd do anything to cry
I'd do anything to cry
Let this pain fall from my eyes
And let time heal my insides

This song is for the painter
Who lost both of her hands
And if I ever find my heart darling
I promise to come home again
