Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh no, what happened to us, darlin'?
I know we didn't see it comin'
I thought that I would die by your side
I thought that, baby, this was our life
You said to dream, so I dreamt hard
Now I don't know you anymore
[Chorus]
There's a plastic envelope
Taped to the wall beside my bed
Inside are words that say you love me
Just like my heart, I don't know
If I could ever open it again
'Cause I built my world on all your promises
[PostChorus]
And now I'm alone
Alone
Alone
Alone, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Oh no, what happened to you, darlin'?
I can't find love in all your talkin'
Last night, I couldn't look in your eyes
Afraid of all the things I might find
They're like a map to your strange heart
And I can't be here anymore
[Chorus]
There's a plastic envelope
Taped to the wall beside my bed
Inside are words that say you love me
Just like my heart, I don't know
If I could ever open it again
'Cause I built my world on all your promises
[PostChorus]
And now I'm alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
Alone, alone, oh-oh
[Chorus]
There's a plastic envelope
Taped to the wall beside my bed
Inside are words that say you love me
Just like my heart, I don't know
If I could ever open it again
'Cause I built my world on all your promises
[PostChorus]
And now I'm alone
Alone, alone
Alone, alone
Alone, alone
Alone
