Folding your letter, today I will fly
I’ll spread my arms and take off into the night
It’s not as impossible as you’d make it out to be
I’ll take a running start and jump off towards the “sea”
Don’t you understand?
I’m not jumping to show you that I’m a man
I’m only doing what I can
To save you from yourself
As I say good night, suppressing my fears
I’m happy it’s raining, it’ll hides my tears
You asked me to stay, oh how I wish I could
But I have to leave, this is for your own good
Don’t you understand?
I’m not jumping to show you that I’m a man
I’m only doing what I can
To save you from yourself
The only way to save your soul
If for me to never know
What I could have had with you
This is what I have to do
All the things we could have been
But loving you has become a sin
I’ve been turning your heart black
I must leave and not look back
I’m sorry for what I’ve done to you
But you love me too --- damn much
Don’t you understand?
I’m not jumping to show you that I’m a man
I’m only doing what I can
To save you from yourself
--- ( auah… )x3
