They lay carving their initials in the sand
They're holding hands
And I look deep into her sad sad eyes
And I realize that they don't lie to me
Now I'm climbing the ladder
To the top of the highest ledge
She gave herself away
I know she didn't believe
I'm still holding on, on my hands and knees
I'm gonna change her mind, gonna make her believe
They're sitting on the couch
It's sagging down, pushing them together
But don't fight it
Just lean in and kiss me as I say I love her
And I realize her voice, it doesn't lie to me
Now I'm climbing the ladder
To the top of the highest ledge
She gave herself away
I know she didn't believe
I'm still holding on, on my hands and knees
I'm gonna change her mind, gonna make her believe
You see me, I'm staring back at you
But you don't have a thing to say to me
Your sad eyes close so they don't have to see
