All of my days are numbered
And all of my life awaits me now
You have kept me from walking
Past the point where you are now

Still I need you, live, and breathe you
And I'll never grow till you tell me
It's ok not to be you

Emerald eyes
I'll forgive you when you shine
Continue to climb
I'm following close behind
Emerald eyes
Emerald eyes

Right now I'm on my own
And right now you're too heavy to hold
Defeat lies in your eyes
I feel nothing when you cry

But still I need you, live, and breathe you
And I'll never grow till you tell me
It's ok not to be you

Emerald eyes
I'll forgive you when you shine
Continue to climb
I'm following close behind
Emerald eyes
Emerald eyes

And are you holding on?
Are you holding on?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Are you holding on?

Emerald eyes
I'll forgive you when you shine
Continue to climb
I'm following close behind
Emerald eyes
I'll forgive you when you shine

Are you holding on? Are you holding on?
Emerald eyes
Emerald eyes
Emerald eyes, emerald eyes
Emerald eyes
Are you holding on?
