Far, away from it all You and me with no one else around A brand new start Is all we need, it's all we need to mend these hearts Back to the beginning Be still Let it go Before we lost hope When we still touched and love wasn't so hard Be still I already know Foolish one with the smile You don't have to be brave Every time we fall down But we're falling from grace I'll gladly climb your walls if you'll meet me halfway Slow, slow it down Why do we run, we're missing so much babe Just lay in my arms for a while Be still We should've known Foolish one with the smile You don't have to be brave I'll gladly climb your walls If you'll meet me halfway Every time we fall down But we're falling from grace Here's my hand and my heart It's yours to take Be still Be still now Be still Be still Be still
