Kitchen Table

I wrote this song by your kitchen table

Maybe it all seems okay

Sometimes it's better just to laugh than to run away

Maybe I'll leave you in the coming winter

And all of your dreams soon fade away

Sometimes it's better just to run than to play your game

When we were laying down and you held my hand

Amongst the opal flowers when we sat outside

And now I see it's over now, we just grew out of love

Out from the darkness, your heartlessness haunting my future

Down on all fours, you bark bright at the descending moonlight

You'll be with the rest of the lonely people

Ones who live in a cold, dark place

Sometimes it's better just to run than to face the pain

I've not been seeing you for some time now

And still you choose to hold my hate

But after how I handled it, you're hardly to blame

I feel you read my mind and look through my soul

As our love grew fainter and your face grew wetter

And I see it's over now, we just grew out of love

Out from the darkness, your heartlessness haunting my future

Down on all fours, you bark bright at the descending moon

All of the rest of our days together

I may have never seemed the same

Sometimes there's nothing we can do when we all change

And now my heart's in two, not a half for you

Another situation now the morning's golden

And I see it's over now, we just grew out of love

Out from the darkness, your heartlessness haunting my future

Down on all fours, you bark bright at the descending moonlight
