So you set out to find the sky like a rocket ship
And from on this ground you looked so fine

You insisted you weren't drifting away
That someday you'd be back to take me with you, oh-h

But now you've got better things to do

And I don't want to stand here and beg you to fall

Cause one day you'll see I was worth it all

Down on my knees ain't where I need to be
I'm gone, ain't gonna beg you to fall

Oh maybe one day you'll arrive like you never left
And find out that while you were learning to fly

Well you taught me the best damn lesson, oh-h-h
I will never waste a second on talking you into loving me
My breath is far too precious
Oh

And I don't want to stand here and beg you to fall

Cause one day you'll see I was worth it all

Down on my knees ain't where I need to be
I'm gone

Ain't gonna beg you to fall for me if your heart's no in it
But could you make sure you break me gently

Cause you're everything I've been living for, well not anymore

I don't want to stand here and beg you to fall

One day you'll see I am worth it --
And I don't want to stand here and beg you to fall

Cause one day you'll see I was worth it all
And down on my knees ain't where I need to be

I'm gone, ain't gonna beg you to fall, oh-h-h-h

Don't want to beg you to fall
