Love The Way It Hurts

Gathered round the table on your birthday

Your feet in conversation with my shoes

Might have been about 15 other people

But for me it was just me and you

Maybe you’re the tide and I'm the water

Your feelings tend to come and go somehow

Wish that I could hold you like I used to

But we both know things are different now

I could leave

But I love the way it hurts

When you’re saying these words

you no longer mean

And it’s not me

It never was, I’ll never be

But I’d rather stay blind

Until you force me to see

Hoped that I would never see the sun fade

Every night it drops into the sea

Maybe in the morning when it rises

We’ll be back where we once were suddenly

I could leave

But I love the way it hurts

When you’re saying these words

you no longer mean

And it’s not me

It never was, I’ll never be

But I’d rather stay blind

Until you force me to see

Finally, it’s clear to see

That I never know what the future holds

It might be, make belief

But at least I know that I held you close

I could leave

But I love the way it hurts

When you’re saying these words

you no longer mean

And it’s not me

It never was, I’ll never be

But I’d rather stay blind

Until you force me to see

I could leave

But I love the way it hurts

When you’re saying these words

you no longer mean

And it’s not me

It never was, I’ll never be

But I’d rather stay blind

Until you force me to see

No I’d rather stay blind

Until you force me to see
