It kills me not

to know this

but I've all but

just forgotten

What the colour

of her eyes were

and her scars or

how she got them

As the telling signs

of age rain down

a single tear

is dropping

Through the valley

of an aging face

that this world

has forgotten...

There is no reconciliation

that will put me

in my place

and there is no time

like the present

To drink these

draining seconds

But seldom do

these words ring true

when I'm constantly

failing you

Like walls that we just

can't break through

until we disappear

so tell me now

If this ain't love

then how do we

get out?

'Cause I don't know that's

when she said I don't

hate you boy I just want

to save you while there's

still something left to save

That's when I told her

I love you girl

but I'm not the answer

for the questions

that you still have

Woah-oh

Woah-oh

But the day pressed on

like crushing weights

for no man does it

ever wait

Like memories of

dying days

that deafen us

like hurricanes

Bathed in flames

we held the brand

uncurled the fingers

in your hand

Pressed into the flesh

like sand

now do you understand?

so tell me now

If this ain't love then

how do we get out?

'Cause I don't know that's

when she said I don't

hate you boy I just want

to save you while there's

still something left to save

That's when I told her

I love you girl

but I'm not the answer

for the questions

that you still have

Woah-oh

Woah-oh

One thousand miles away

there's nothing left to say

there's so much left

that I don't know

We never had a choice

this world is too

much noise

it takes me under

It takes me under

once again

I don't hate you

I don't hate you no

So tell me now

if this ain't love then

how do we get out?

'Cause I don't know

That's when she said

I don't hate you boy

I just want to save you

while there's still

something left to save

That's when I told her

I love you girl

but I'm not the answer

for the questions

that you still have

I don't hate you.....

I don't hate you.....

I don't hate you....

I don't hate you

no

Woah-oh

Woah-oh
