Can you feel the breeze? [Chorus:] Maybe we should just let go Set what's left of us up in smoke 'Coz this love is full of lies, sorries we don't use Here I am to find myself down to one excuse There with bitter emptiness, hell its a damn fuse, It's gonna make a fine pile of ashes Mistakes and memories will burn More fuel for the fire another lesson never learned One more chance for you and me to get it all out with matches, matches [Chorus:] Maybe we should just let go Set what's left of us up in smoke 'Coz this love is full of lies, sorries we don't use Here I am to find myself down to one excuse There with bitter emptiness, hell its a damn fuse, It's gonna make a fine pile of ashes Once I find the matches [Chorus:] 'Coz this love is full of lies, sorries we don't use Here I am to find myself down to one excuse There with bitter emptiness, hell its a damn fuse, It's gonna make a fine pile of ashes Yeah It's gonna make a fine pile of ashes Once I find the matches Well, I wished I smoked cigarettes 'Coz then I'd have a reason to keep some by my bed and I wouldn't be searching out every drawer in the house for matches, matches, matches
