I sit on the porch
Just singing my song
And I can't help but wonder what went wrong
It was all because of me
I know how true that seems
And nothing is so shallow
But these hollow dreams
I talked to myself
Half a dozen times
I couldn't come up
With very many rhymes
But finally I find myself
Far away in my happy place
And nothing is as dreary
As the thought of your face
It pulls me back
It drags me down
It turns my smile
Into a frown
I am ready now
I finally fear
I found what
I was afraid to hear
I'm done
And everything is over
There's nothing left
To feel for each other
And perhaps I'm wrong
And perhaps your right
Perhaps this is
Just another fight
But I know how different
This is to me
It isn't the way
I used to see
I used to see every always perfect
Nothing went wrong it was wonderful
But look at my words I can't help it
I know they are very hateful
I took a walk
Around my street
It brought me back
I dragged my feet
For the last time I went this way
I had my hand in your back pocket
And your arm was on my shoulder
And once again I fell for it
All the truth
That was covered in lies
All the wrong things
All the alibies
Well darling if you can't simply have me
If you have to pretend we weren't together
I can't sit back
And watch it forever
I don't know what I'm trying to say
I don't know what I'm meaning to write
I just know that a look in your eyes
It takes away every last bit of fright
But here's to us
Way back then
Back to when
Nothing began
I'm sorry but I think its time
That I say I love you
And that I needed you
And that I swear all of its true
But I'll pack my stuff
And make up a lie
Until you look back and find
A simple note, that tells you good-bye
