[Verse 1] If I came knocking at your door Would you let me in? Would you hear me out? Should we go over this once more? I understand enough's been said But I still need to get this out [Chorus] Woah, wasted words that were never meant to mean that much I never thought they'd lead us to this place Guess I never knew that these feelings were inside of you Your secret shadow follows and reveals what you don't show And I'll be there to follow where you go [Verse 2] I can't defend the way I feel I just pretend that it's for real As it lies heavy on my mind And when the tables have been turned It always feels like I've just learned They're feelings better left behind [Chorus] Woah, wasted words that were never meant to mean that much I never thought they'd lead us to this place Guess I never knew that these feelings were inside of you Your secret shadow follows and reveals what you don't show And I'll be there to follow where you go [Bridge] I can't build a perfect world Though I sometimes try to act the simple girl And if you'd only hold my hand It would take me back to where it all began, woah [Chorus] Woah, wasted words that were never meant to mean that much I never thought they'd lead us to this place Guess I never knew that these feelings were inside of you Your secret shadow follows and reveals what you don't show And I'll be there to follow where you go
