[Verse 1]
I'm beside you at the mirror
Hi, do I look familiar?
Would you believe that we were happy once
True like an answered prayer
You were mine, and we were rare
Now I fight to find what's left of us
[Pre-Chorus]
I give, I give, I give, you never take
I bend, I bend, I bend, so we won't break
[Chorus]
I've been doing cartwheels
Anything to save us
Anything to make you notice me
I've been running circles
Always getting nowhere
Putting on a show but you won't see
I've been doing cartwheels
I've been doing cartwheels
[Verse 2]
Bright as a sparkler light
I write our names across your night
It's only me who sees it fade away
Into shame
That I can't keep you honest blame
That you don't even want this
Love is not enough to make you stay
[Pre-Chorus]
I give, I give, I give, you never take it
I still, I still, I still, believe we'll make it
[Chorus]
So I've been doing cartwheels
Anything to save us
Anything to make you notice me
I've been running circles
Always getting nowhere
Putting on a show but you won't see
I've been doing cartwheels
I've been doing cartwheels
Oh-ohh-ohhhh
[Bridge]
After everything I've done
You still run and disappear
Maybe all I've got is hoping
I can show you how it feels
So I've been doing cartwheels
I've been doing cartwheels
Oh-ohh-ohhhh
[Chorus]
I've been doing cartwheels
Anything to save us
Anything to make you notice me
I've been running circles
Always getting nowhere
Putting on a show but you won't see
I've been doing cartwheels
I've been doing cartwheels
[Outro]
I'm beside you at the mirror
Hi, do I look familiar?
