because of you

The Subways

If it's okay with you, it's fine by me
I owe you everything and more you see
'Cos I remember when your eyes turned black
And then I told you I was coming back
I know I'm not the only one who knows

Just how far you were prepared to go
I know I'm not the only one who bleeds
I owe you everything and more you see
You had the patience to iron me out
You had the patience to talk me down

What once I was
No longer
Because of you
I'm stronger
I'll never break
This promise
Because of you
I'm honest

I could never quite believe in fate
Or anything that told me what to say
I was up for being anyone's fool
Thinking I was breaking all the rules
I know I'm not the only one who knows
Just how far you were prepared to go
I know I'm not the only one who bleeds
I owe you everything and more you see
You had the fire to burn me out
You had the fire to warm me down

What once I was
No longer
Because of you
I'm stronger
I'll never break
This promise
Because of you
I'm honest

What once I was
No longer
Because of you
I'm stronger
I'll never break
This promise
Because of you
I'm honest
