Untied
Juliet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanted to love someone
Doesn't matter who
I just wanted to love someone
Somebody like you

Two times the pain
Every go around
And what's to gain

With half a heart gone
With half my will gone?
Leave the lonely idle on
Save myself for the only one

Morning light is calling
The fuchsia sky is on
And when the rain's falling
I've come undone

I had a dream
A fairy tale for two
Can I find grace?

Tucked away for tomorrow
'Cause no one else will do
Holding out for the golden
The golden hours with you

I have a dream
Time keep me true
I'll turn the page

Just wanted to love someone
Doesn't matter who




Just wanted to love someone
Somebody like you
