The amount of times I cried
I could never count on two handsFor my teary eyed days
need more fingersI can't say I never lied
everyone understandsMy love still stays
as your hold on my heart lingersA twisted soul like yours
made me stay as summer turned to fallMy mind fought through many wars
while you watched, standing tallThose days of driving to you were over in October
I needed to live in the trees, not the oceanBut to let go I had to be sober
making that idea never take motionLittle did I know
for he is no man, the boy I lovedHe could put on a Conjurer's show
and make women feel like his magically appearing dovesI cried myself dry as I wished and waited for the boy in the sea
but he left it behind to live in the treesHe watched me drain myself and heard me plea
From the same tree I cried in, he lived without me
