Tyler Lyle - When I Say That I Love You... lyrics

When I say that I love you I guess what I mean is that I love you like a home I have to leave And I'm thinkin how nothing can stay How the sun stains the curtains And the paint flakes away But it'll always be home, till the memory fades I love you, thanks for the golden age When I say that I'm grateful I guess what I mean is how the sapling is grateful for the seed And I'm thinking how all things change How the branches grow tall But our initials remain I'll remember you well when the summer is gone Another year another ring round my bones When I say that I'll miss you I guess what I mean is that I'll miss you I'll miss you like autumn misses spring And I've been thinking how everything dies Like the reds and the blues on their way cross the sky And the sunset explodes when it knows that it's time Before hello, sometimes goodbye Kiss me once more Then leave me forever I know I'm too heavy to hold Grab both my hands Kiss me like you mean it And I'll never know you again When I say that I love you I guess what I mean is There's a Power that moves everything And it pushes the river to sea And it takes all the years and makes regret into peace You can't die alone, if you are free You didn't mean to, but thank you for showing me
