You'll Be Fine (If You're Not Mine)

I'm leaving in the morning when the sun breaks light 
trying to find a river or a train to take things miles behind 
You'll look when you awake and I won't be here 
So faithfully we haunt, but ghosts like me, we disappear 

I'll try to turn back as my bridges burn
but they'll crumble to the water as if saying that I can't return 
Then the smoke from the billows it'll burn my eyes
so I'll run like the devil with the devil always close behind 
Baby, you'll be fine if you're not mine 

Nothing's ever meant much but you mean most 
Still, I've always been better at pushing back than drawing close 
When there's blood on the rails or sea in my lungs 
know I never stopped running toward
the aimless, senseless dream I loved 
...and you were always loved

But there's somebody who'll never let their arms grow tired 
of keeping you afloat as they let their love flood true and wild 
Fall into their river and don't break free,
sink to the bottom where you'll drown the very last thought of me 
Baby, you'll be fine if you're not mine 

If I try rebuilding bridges, or the waves run dry 
and I crawl across the river bed and find my way to the starting side 
Where I beg you for forgiving with my honest lines 
know I'm lying like the devil with the devil lying at my side 
Go and hide within the walls of the love you'll find 
and push me from your heart and block me out of your tender mind 
Baby, you'll be fine if you're not mine 
Baby, you'll be fine if you're not mine
