How can I explain to you
|
The picture of this avenue
|
The rain falls on the street outside
|
And I wonder why on this Tuesday afternoon
|
I sit alone inside
|
Same four walls I lived inside
|
So many lives I lived and died
|
None so much as I lived with you
|
I see you on the highway
|
A thousand miles away
|
Rain falls through your hair and cheeks
|
Your tears and mascara streaks
|
Your face reflected in the glass
|
Lines in the pavement go past
|
Just like the lines around your eyes
|
That held the weight of endless sad goodbyes
|
|
Everybody that I know
|
Thinks that I should just let you go
|
You run from everything you see
|
You hurt the ones you love like me
|
But here I sit and picture you
|
Your fingers worn and your shirt torn too
|
Your heart so big and broke in two
|
Your mind drifting through all you knew
|
Afraid to love
|
Afraid to lose
|
Afraid to start
|
Afraid to choose
|
Afraid to live
|
Afraid to die
|
Afraid to let the days slip by
|
Afraid you'll change or stay the same
|
Afraid you'll lose yourself again
|
Afraid of the truth that love
|
Can cause you so much pain
|
I know
|
I felt it too
|
I know, I know
|
Darling I wish it wasn't true
|
