Endless Nights

Endless nights, a shot across the bows

You take the high road once again

And I'll take the lows

I see the sadness in your eyes now

And it's difficult to swallow (It's difficult to swallow, to swallow)

Packed your bags, got out before the slope

Asked you to stay for one more night

But that just rocked the boat

I know I should've done the math, but it's still hard to let you go

Well, I know I'm not the only one

To fall for all the lies

That we were living in a house of cards

So, I can't be surprised when I'm

Waking up in a sea of sadness

And I know we'll make it a force of habit

Maybe, in a year or so, I'll be able just to laugh at it

But, for now, I spend my nights wishing we could just go back to it

Better half, that's what I thought you were

Path of glory, same old story

"Time's a thief", I've heard

You can hold the smoking gun but I'll still shoot the messenger (Messenger)

Sea of sorrows, you wiped it off my cheek

See you tomorrow, that's time borrowed for another week

I can't stand beside you now if you don't really want me

Well, I know I'm not the only one

To fall for all the lies

That we were living in a house of cards

So, I can't be surprised when I'm

Waking up in a sea of sadness

And I know we'll make it a force of habit

Maybe, in a year or so, I'll be able just to laugh at it

But, for now, I spend my nights wishing we could just go back to it

I'll remember we were once in love

Remember we were once in love

I hope that, when you think of us

You'll remember it the way it was

And I hope that, when you're missing me

You're missing what we used to be

I hope that, when you're falling down

You'll remember how I stuck around

And I hope that, when you look me up

You'll remember we were once in love

(We were once in love)

You'll remember we were once in love

(We were once in love)

Remember we were once in love

Waking up in a sea of sadness

And I know we'll make it a force of habit

Maybe, in a year or so, I'll be able just to laugh at it

But, for now, I spend my nights wishing we could just go back to it
