I know it hurts, I know you're bruised
But it's only on the inside
I know you're lost, and you're confused
Yeah it's only on the inside
I see you walk and you're dragging your feet
But it's only for a moment
Stuck in the part where you feel incomplete
Yeah it's only for a moment

It's not too late to walk in my direction
When honey everything you need's in your reflection

Who's gonna walk you home
And who's gonna hold your hand
When you're heavy like a stone
And there's trouble where you stand
No I won't tell your heart where to go
Or make it feel something it won't
You can rearrange the stars
And make them all your own
But you can't fall in love alone

I know you're torn and in between dreams
But it's all you've ever known
And I know you're worn out at the seams
Yeah it's all you've ever known
Well there's no place left for you to run
You can cast your past into the sun
Watch it light up the night
And honey you will be fine

It's not too late to walk in my direction
When honey everything you need's in your reflection

Who's gonna walk you home
And who's gonna hold your hand
When you're heavy like a stone
And there's trouble where you stand
No I won't tell your heart where to go
Or make it feel something it won't
You can rearrange the stars
And make them all your own
But you can't fall in love alone
You can't fall in love alone

Tell me who's gonna walk you home, yeah (oh)

Who's gonna walk you home
And who's gonna hold your hand
When you're heavy like a stone
And there's trouble where you stand
No I won't tell your heart where to go
Or make it feel something it won't
You can rearrange the stars
And make them all your own

Tell me who's gonna walk you home
Tell me who's gonna walk you home
You can't fall in love alone <3

    General Comment:The minute I heard the piano opening on this song, I knew something good had come my way. I'm listening to the song and I still find it as comforting as I did last year. Whenever I'm in a bad mood I play this song and the negative emotions dissolve. Last winter I had periods of unhappiness (I won't say depression because I haven't been diagnosed as having such) and the opening lines of this song cheered me up so much. "I know you're hurt, I know you're bruised... but it's only for a moment." I think this song is the reason why Thriving Ivory is my second band now...

    The meaning is pretty much what IAmAngel said above me, so I won't go into that. :)

    My Interpretation:I think this song is about a girl that's hurt and confused (I know it hurts, I know you're bruised.....I know you're lost, and you're confused..), but the singer is trying to tell her that even though that's how she feels on the inside, she is still beautiful on the outside. I think that the "who's gonna walk you home" part is referring to how the singer will be with her to the very end (metaphor). I'm thinking that she probably hasn't fallen for him, and other men have given up on her (and who's gonna hold your hand When you're heavy like a stone And there's trouble where you stand). The singer is trying to tell her that he isn't going to tell or make her fall in love with him (o I won't tell your heart where to go Or make it feel something it won't), but that he'll still be there waiting for her in the end.
