Maybe it was to learn how to love |
|
Maybe it was to learn how to leave |
|
Maybe it was for the games we played |
|
Maybe it was to learn how to choose |
|
Maybe it was to learn how to lose |
|
Maybe it was for the love we made |
|
Love is everything they said it would be |
|
Love made sweet and sad the same |
|
But love forgot to make me too blind to see |
|
You're chickening out aren't you? |
|
You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum |
|
I cant wait 'til you make |
|
The whole kingdom come |
|
So I'm leaving |
|
Maybe it was to learn how to fight |
|
Maybe it was for the lesson in pride |
|
Maybe it was the cowboys' ways |
|
Maybe it was to learn not to lie |
|
Maybe it was to learn how to cry |
|
Maybe it was for the love we made |
|
Love is everything they said it would be |
|
Love did not hold back the reins |
|
But love forgot to make me too blind to see |
|
You're chickening out aren't you? |
|
You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum |
|
I cant wait 'til you make |
|
The whole kingdom come |
|
So I'm leaving |
|
First he turns to you |
|
Then he turns to her |
|
So you try to hurt him back |
|
But it breaks your body down |
|
So you try to love bigger |
|
Bigger still |
|
But it...it's too late |
|
So take a lesson from the strangeness you feel |
|
And know you'll never be the same |
|
And find it in your heart to kneel down and say |
|
I gave my love didn't I? |
|
And I gave it big...sometimes |
|
And I gave it in my own sweet time |
|
I'm just leaving |
|
Love is everything... |
