| [00:14.90] |
Lying on the mattress |
| [00:16.68] |
Cause my friend's crazy sister took my bed away |
| [00:22.23] |
Sleeping, she looked like an actress, |
| [00:24.26] |
A theory I didn't practice, |
| [00:26.19] |
I said "There's got to be a better way" |
| [00:29.81] |
She said: "You light a thousand matches |
| [00:31.97] |
When you finally set fire when you run away |
| [00:36.70] |
So why'd you go and do it |
| [00:39.78] |
When you knew that you would go and I would stay" |
| [00:43.42] |
|
| [00:45.33] |
I hit the wall in frustration, |
| [00:46.81] |
The conversation had been circling for days |
| [00:52.37] |
She said: "Don't take it out on him, |
| [00:54.85] |
For the wall has always been |
| [00:56.72] |
Supportive in the best of ways" |
| [01:01.20] |
|
| [01:01.46] |
We're laughing and crying like mad men dying in the snow |
| [01:07.54] |
For just one second it was funny that |
| [01:10.86] |
She would have to stay and I would go |
| [01:14.57] |
|
| [01:16.38] |
I said "I love you know I love you so, |
| [01:19.93] |
When you love someone |
| [01:21.82] |
Well you've got to let them know." |
| [01:23.97] |
And She said: "Nothing's changed I love you the same, |
| [01:27.88] |
but when you love someone sometimes |
| [01:29.83] |
you gotta let them go." |
| [01:42.52] |
|
| [01:44.12] |
She handed me a stone in the perfect shape of a heart |
| [01:51.92] |
She said: "I'm gonna take this home |
| [01:55.51] |
For I know you'll only lose it somewhere after dark |
| [02:01.36] |
'Cause some faces so terribly seem to lose everything you own." |
| [02:08.23] |
She didn't mean it how it sounded, |
| [02:11.06] |
What she meant was she would stay and I would go |
| [02:15.10] |
|
| [02:17.22] |
And I said: "I love you know I love you so, |
| [02:17.41] |
When you love someone |
| [02:22.36] |
Well you've got to let them know" |
| [02:24.37] |
She said: "Nothing's changed I love you the same, |
| [02:28.71] |
But when you love someone sometimes |
| [02:30.63] |
You gotta let them go" |
| [02:35.96] |
|
| [02:36.18] |
Sometimes you tear it all apart, |
| [02:39.82] |
To see the wood from the trees |
| [02:43.61] |
Sometimes you break your own heart |
| [02:47.81] |
To set yourself free |
| [02:53.26] |
|
| [03:02.86] |
I walked her to the station, |
| [03:06.14] |
Hesitation in our movements and our tongue |
| [03:12.15] |
Words finally left after realizing |
| [03:16.34] |
How uncomfortable they've grown |
| [03:21.74] |
What you want and what you need, |
| [03:24.10] |
Well they seldomly succeed to grow |
| [03:30.64] |
We reluctantly agreed that |
| [03:33.33] |
When you love someone, |
| [03:35.60] |
You've got to let them go |
