You don't have to be so scared
You don't have to go tonight
'Cause we just need to hold on tight
For one hell of a ride
'Cause lost it all just now
To the nights that left you out
So we'll let this go somehow
But you're gonna be proud, so proud
And I just needed you to pick me up
Like you did when we were younger
When the lightning and the thunder
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone to lift me up
When I'm down and I'm forgotten
You'll forever be my father
And I'll be saving tears in jars for this one, for this one
And how can I fit all these words
Into such a simple verse
It's the last time that I'll speak
So listen to me, please
And I just needed you to pick me up
Like you did when we were younger
When the lightning and the thunder
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone to lift me up
'Cause when I'm down and I'm forgotten
You'll forever be my father
And I'll be saving tears in jars for this one
For this one
And I just needed you to pick me up
Like you did when we were younger
When the lightning and the thunder
Had me clinging to your heart
For someone to lift me up
When I'm down and I'm forgotten
You'll forever be my father
And I'll be saving tears in jars for this one
