I'm thinking
Of ways to leave
I'll put a note
Between the sheets
I love you
So much
But I can't seem to breathe

I hear the train
Rumble by past your window
And I sit and think
About the year
And where you went
And how much time had passed
Before you looked me
Dead in the eye
And told me
How you felt
As you felt it

I'd do it
All over again
If it means we won't mess up
To be the one who's on your mind
And who you're thinking of

I'm not getting in the car
Even if you ask
The taxi's coming
My meter's running
And I've paid my fare
Maybe tomorrow you'll forget
All about me
And I think that's fine
I think that's fine

I'll see you
In the future
Where you're always hiding
I'll give you a chance
The future is fleeting
And love has meaning again
We'll build a home with words
And sing every verse
I know that it hurts
