I've been trying all afternoon, to write a song about you
I tried to pretend, like it doesn't hurt
But thoughts plant seeds in the deepest parts of our hearts

And those dreams deteriorate when reality collides

Chorus:

Give me a second to get myself together,
Pick up the pieces of a heart you'll never have,
Let me cry out my sorrow, I'll be alright tomorrow

You gave me no reason to fall so hard,
I broke my own heart, I broke my own heart


Close your eyes it all seems so real,
but maybe it's not for me
So naïve that I kept running

And tripped over my own feet

Chorus


You can stick to your thirty girls a year,
I'll save myself my dear for someone who loves me

And one day when you're dull and grey and I'm doing ok
You'll remember this day and you'll cry out my name


Chorus
