Please
Howie Beck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Please
It's not your fault
Everything just went wrong
Inside your heart
While you were gone
Please be alright
She said it's a go
But i don't know

While i can still breathe
Let me be on my way
I always knew you'd leave
You could never stay
Please be alright




She said it's a go
But i don't know
