The Words Lyrics & Chords By Christina Perri

All of the lights land on you
The rest of the world fades from you
And all of the love I see
Please, please
Say you feel it too

And all of the noise I hear inside
Restless and loud, unspoken and wild
And all that you need to say
To make it all go away
It's that you feel the same way too

And I know the scariest part is letting go
'Cause love is a ghost you can't control
I promise you the truth can't hurt us now
So let the words slip out of your mouth

And all of the stairs that land me to you
And all of the hell I have to walk through
But I wouldn't trade a day
For the chance to say
My love, I'm in love with you

And I know the scariest part is letting go
'Cause love is a ghost you can't control
I promise you the truth can't hurt us now
So let the words slip out of your mouth

I know that we're both afraid
We both made the same mistakes
An open heart is an open wound too
And in the wind of a heavy choice
Love has a quiet voice
Still you mind, now I'm yours to choose

And I know the scariest part is letting go
Let my love be the light that guides you home

And I know the scariest part is letting go
'Cause love is a ghost you can't control
I promise you the truth can't hurt us now
So let the words slip out of your mouth
