Confess Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was stronger that night

I wanted to go alone

The rain was coming down

And nobody could leave, we stayed around

I said things I knew you'd like

Alaska and the bears

You knew you couldn't fight

Swimming underneath the Northern Lights



[Pre Chorus]

You didn't know it

But I had you in the palm of my hand

Palm of my hand



[Chorus]

I confess I needed you there

I've gone through every memory we shared tonight

And I don't have the guts to carry on without you

When the storm breaks through, I'll be standing there

Waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you



[Verse 2]

I can dream away your life

Hitch hike to the southern tip of Africa

And put up all the fences that you like

But I can't sing you to sleep there

You're on your own there

You're on your own



[Pre Chorus]

I didn't know it

I thought I had you in the palm of my hand

Palm of my hand



[Chorus]

I confess I needed you there

I've gone through every memory we shared tonight

And I don't have the guts to carry on without you

When the storm breaks through, I'll be standing there

Waiting for you



[Bridge]

Take me down, love me in the avenue

It'll never be what you want it to

Was it like this with her?

Is it everything you dreamed of?



[Pre-Chorus]

I, I, I thought I had you in the palm of my hand

Palm of my hand



[Chorus]

I confess I needed you there

I've gone through every memory we shared tonight

And I don't have the guts to carry on without you

When the storm breaks through, I'll be standing there

Waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you



[Outro]

Are you ready? Tell me when you want to go

Are you ready? Tell me when you want to go
