The Petal Falls - Mariah

Whatever happened to
All the promises you made
From rags to riches you sold me
So sweet was the song you played
You could be an actor
Performing live upon a stage
But you were born to be a poet
Spilling your heart across a page

When I hung on every word you said
They were always the good spells
And every now and then you'd go and loose your head
And it was like treading on eggshells

(I can't ever see one day possibly)
Say you'll never go and leave me Mariah
(I wont ever be one day possibly)
I can't be without you Mariah
Y'know y'know you make me wanna shout
I'm on a, im on a breakdown
I'm on a, I'm on a meltdown

Some nights you can hear it through the walls
It's like the city gives a little cry
Almost childlike in a way
It closes in around you
Clinging, claustrophobic in its feel
You find yourself climbing up the walls
Lonely and alone

I can't face another mirror
It's always you staring back at me.
And every now and then I go and lose my head
It's like treading on eggshells

(I can't ever see one day possibly)
Say you'll never go and leave me Mariah
(I wont ever be one day possibly)
I can't ever be without you Mariah

(I can't ever see)
One day possibly
(I wont ever be)
Without you Mariah
(I can't ever see)
One day possibly
(I wont ever be)
Without you without you
Mariah
Say you'll never go and leave me Mariah
(I can't ever see)
I can't ever see
(I wont ever be)
I won't I won't
(I can't ever see)
Na na na na na no
(I wont ever be)
Without you Mariah
I won't be without you
