I see you looking at the wind like you wanna run
Staring out over the water like your dreams are getting farther
You don't long for me the way that you did before
'Cause I've tried to turn you into something
Watching love fade into nothing
When all of a sudden I see
The one who is broken is me
What if I am the anchor and you are the sail
And you've been trying to move, trying to do something
And I've been holding you right here
You wanna go, you wanna go, but I wish you would stay
Is it the time to cut the ties and watch you fly away?
There was a time we swore that we would never settle down
Young and crazy, you and me, freer than the open seas
I never thought I'd be the one to ever let you go
It'll break my heart to watch you leave, but that's how this has to be
What if I am the anchor and you are the sail
And you've been trying to move, trying to do something
And I've been holding you right here
You wanna go, you wanna go, but I wish you would stay
Is it the time to cut the ties and watch you fly away?
Oh, no, you'll fly away
You wanna go, you wanna go, and I wish you would stay
What if I am the anchor and you are the sail
And you've been trying to move, trying to do something
And I've been holding you right here
And all of a sudden I see
That I'm the one who's broken
What if I am the anchor and you are the sail
And you've been trying to move, trying to do something
And I've been holding you right here
You wanna go, you wanna go, but I wish you would stay
Is it the time to cut the ties and watch you fly away?
Watch you fly away, oh, no
What if I'm the anchor, what if you are the sail?
