I look up from the ground to see your sad and teary eyes
          	You look away from me and I see
          	There's something you're trying to hide
          	And I reach for your hand but it's cold, you pull away again
          	And I wonder what's on your mind
          	And then you say to me you made a dumb mistake
          	You start to tremble and your voice begins to break
          	You say the cigarettes on the counter weren't your friend's
          	They were my mate's
          	And I feel the color draining from my face
          	And my friend said
          	I know you love her, but it's over, mate
          	It doesn't matter, put the phone away
          	It's never easy to walk away, let her go

I got a heart, and I got a soul
          Believe me, I will use them both
          We made a start
          Be it a false one, I know
          Baby, I don't want to feel alone
          So kiss me where I lay down
          My hands pressed to your cheeks
          A long way from the playground
          I have loved you since we were 18
          Long before we both thought the same thing
          To be loved and to be in love
          All I can do is say that these arms

          Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain
          I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
          She told me in the morning
          She don't feel the same about us in her bones
          It seems to me that when I die
          These words will be written on my stone
          And I'll be gone, gone tonight
          The ground beneath my feet is open wide
          The way that I been holdin' on too tight
          With nothing in between
          The story of my life, I take her home
          I drive all night to keep her warm and time
          Is frozen (the story of, the story of, the story of)
          The story of my life, I give her hope
          I spend her love until she's broke inside
          The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

I know you're somewhere out there
          Somewhere far away
          I want you back, I want you back
          My neighbors think I'm crazy
          But they don't understand
          You're all I had, you're all I had
          At night, when the stars light up my room
          I sit by myself
          Talking to the moon
          Trying to get to you
          In hopes you're on the other side talking to me, too
          Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?

I just need some time, I'm tryna think straight
          I just need a moment in my own space
          Ask me how I'm doin', I'll say "okay, " yeah
          But ain't that what we all say?
          Sometimes I think back to the old days
          In the pointless conversations with the old me
          Yeah, back when my momma used to hold me
          I wish somebody woulda told me
          If you want love, you gon' have to go through the pain
