I read through all your letters From the winter of 79 in December Before you lost your way I couldn't bare the words you wrote To another man a life ago But it never made a difference You were made to fall apart And I carry this with me Everywhere I go You were so in love Yeah, so in love Yeah, but love just wasn't enough Just wasn't enough If what could have been never was Maybe we'd be better off Yeah, so in love
But how could I forget The house that we grew up in The place that taught resentment When we were way too young The way you felt was raw Palpable and blatant An obvious disregard To the life you left forsaken And so I carry it with me Everywhere I go You were so in love It doesn't matter how you made it Love born from new life is jaded Nothing's built to last When promises are perforated Your promises were perforated
