Cartwheels - Ward Thomas

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

I give, I give, I give, you never take

I bend, I bend, I bend, so we won’t break

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

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 enough

To make you wanna stay

I give, I give, I give, you never take it

I still, I still, I still, believe we’ll make it

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

O-o-oh!

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

O-o-oh!

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

I’m, beside you at the mirror

Hi, do I look familiar?
