You Love Her

Yesterday, you asked me, "How do I move on from love?"
For a moment, I blushed
For a moment, I thought you meant us
But you told me a story of damsel in distress
Who has stolen your heart and you'll finally confess
She's your everything, haunting your mind
Driving you crazy, but it's her love you can't find

(Guitar)

I didn't really know how to reply to, "I love her with my every breath."
When I'm the girl who spent so much time dreaming
I'd be the one to hear this
Guess this fairy tale wasn't mine
Guess I should be happy, so Happy Valentine's Day
But you just say, "I wish she loved me."

Why after all this time
Does my heart break over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her
Why after all the times we said no
Does it still hurt, why can't I let go?
The tears come again over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her

So many months trying to make her laugh
So many moments when you'd feel your breath catch
'Cause she's so beautiful and you can't get enough of that
How could I compare, do I even dare?
A daisy to a rose, I'd never be prepared
What hurts the most is though I did you never cared

(Guitar)

I try to get your attention, but why try
When you're lost in your fantasies of the princess and her sparkling eyes?
For a moment, when you said, "She's my best friend."
For a moment, I believed this wasn't just pretend
And maybe you meant the fun memories we made
On our adventures together in the sunlight and shade
But then you say her name and my hope fades

Why after all this time
Does my heart break over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her
Why after all the times we said no
Does it still hurt, why can't I let go?
The tears come again over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her

You and I both know the sorrows we brought one another
Times weren't always happy, and we grew further
And so I tried with all my heart to get back closer to you
We'd just be friends and talk like we used to
Old times, old laughs, our old favorite things
But that's when I realized you heard the new angel sing
Your every heartbeat captivated by her tune
We said we're better off as friends, but why does it hurt to know you
Love her, oh love her?
You're her lover
So much you love her

(Guitar)

Why after all this time
Does my heart break over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her
Why after all the times we said no
Does it still hurt, why can't I let go?
The tears come again over and over
When I hear you say you love her, oh, you love her

(x1)

I should be happy for you
But why when I hear you say you love her
Does my heart break over and over
The tears come over and over again?

Valentine

Tender love, a sweetness spilling between us

Softly soothing desire, but never enough

Your hands on my shoulders, arms holding my waist

Cradle me gently and I will kindly kiss your face

Sweet love, oh, too sweet for sugar

You’re the reason the rose is breathing

You’re the reason I am living

God is so forgiving

Come tender

Love, come tender in the night

Lay your ear to my chest and hear my heart

I will hold you tight

Valentine, my valentine

Oh, forever mine

How I love you

Valentine, my valentine

Oh, in my mind

And in my heart too

Just you

Stay close, let me cover you in my embrace

I’ll be your warmth in the darkness by the fireplace

I’ll be your blanket when you’re cold

Together you and I will grow old

You’re my comfort when I’m lonely

You’re all I need to complete me

Leave me without air or water too

All I need is you

I’ll kiss your lips in the deepest

Most romantic affection in tenderness

And then I’ll stare into your beautiful eyes

Feeling breathless for the thousandth time

Valentine, my valentine

Oh, forever mine

How I love you

Valentine, my valentine

Oh, in my mind

And in my heart too

Just you

Just you

Only ever, forever…you

Last Tear

These tears, you’ve seen them on my face before

Down on my knees, my wrists pressed to the floor

Begging for an exit, show me some way out

I’ve been here far too long, can’t you hear me shout?

The walls are closing in, temperature is cold

I’ve tried doing what you ask of me, as I’ve been told

But I find it so hard meeting your expectations

No matter what I do I’ll never reach those destinations

Cut me out

Let me not be a burden

Close all doubt

Be rid of me and you’ll be rid of them

I can’t take this pain no longer

There’s no way I’ll get stronger

I have one last tear to cry

Before I say goodbye

Twisting in my bed, arguing with myself

Is there really someone to save me if I ask for help?

I reach my hands, but there’s only darkness around

Just shadows of you throwing me to the ground

I’ve never known fear like I’ve grown up to see

The anger you vent, the way you blame it on me

And so I blame it on myself too taking hold of the knife

It’s more than I can bear, time to end this life

Cut me out

Let me not be a burden

Close all doubt

Be rid of me and you’ll be rid of them

I can’t take this pain no longer

There’s no way I’ll get stronger

I have one last tear to cry

Before I say goodbye

So much pain, so much aching

My whole body keeps on hurting

There’s no place to run

All the truths are undone

I’ve looked for a light, but no one’s waiting

I’m on my own in this world alone

I can fake a smile, but when I come home

You remind me how broken my heart is

And I’m back on the floor

I can’t take this, I can’t take this anymore

Cut me out

(Turn out the lights)

Let me not be a burden

Close all doubt

(All the uncertainty)

Be rid of me and you’ll be rid of them

(It never happened)

I can’t take this pain no longer

There’s no way I’ll get stronger

I have one last tear to cry

Before I say goodbye

(Before I say goodbye)

(Repeat x1)

I’ll never cry again

I'm Out

Lately I’ve been feelin’ as angry as ever

Getting frustrated as we talk when we’re together

You tell your views on the issue, what we should do

No, I disagree but you ain’t listenin’ to me

I’m trying to do my things, all on my schedule

You sayin’ I ain’t doin’ it right, stop actin’ like a fool

Who’s the fool, me or you, don’t talk with that kind of mouth

If you’re gonna keep givin’ this trash you might as well get out

My clothes are on the floor, I’ve had a long day

You tell me, get up girl, stop being so messy

There are tears in my eyes, you never ask me why

Do you need a flash card to tell you when a woman cries?

It’s been long enough, I wanna pack my bags

I want someone to talk to, you say I’m a nag

I try to call you on the telephone, you wanna be alone

So why should I still be around when you get home?

I’ve been spendin’ so much time tryin’

To put up with you and I’m not lyin’

It’s getting’ harder and harder to pull through the day

We can’t have a conversation without our tempers on the way

And I understand a couple can get through this

But baby you and I aren’t new to this

We’d be stupid to think it’ll be over with a kiss

Listen, listen

I’m done fighting

(I’m out)

I’m done fighting

(I’m out)

I’m done fighting

I’m, I’m, I’m out

Late at night I need you to hold me

You never understand when I’m feeling lonely

I try to wrap my arms around your waist

You’re not thinkin’ about true love, just about a taste

When your eyes are cast down to the floor

I always ask if you’re alright like the times before

You don’t wanna talk, never tell me how you feel

When I ask how you are again you say “girl, get real”

So it’s not manly to love me like I wanna be loved

Or is just that I’m asking for way too much?

You say you give me enough, I should be grateful

Is neglecting, your constant forgetting, a reason to be thankful?

Why should we bother to say any more words?

Everything I try to express you say it’s so absurd

I can’t tell you anything inside my heart

Used to adore you, now I don’t trust you, we’re falling apart

I’ve been spendin’ so much time tryin’

To put up with you and I’m not lyin’

It’s getting’ harder and harder to pull through the day

We can’t have a conversation without our tempers on the way

And I understand a couple can get through this

But baby you and I aren’t new to this

We’d be stupid to think it’ll be over with a kiss

Listen, listen

I’m done fighting

(I’m out)

I’m done fighting

(I’m out)

I’m done fighting

I’m, I’m, I’m out

I’m done with the lies and regret

I’m done with your yelling and your fits

You’re so commanding, so demanding

I give it all to you, but I never get

Whatever I do my way, you expect me to change

What about yourself, you’re just lookin’ at my page

Every fault, why does it get you on such a rage?

Your blood pressure’s up, you’re driving me insane

I’m so frustrated, you’re so frustrated

Look at this relationship, it’s so tainted

We’re unbalanced, like fire and ice

You’re burning hot flames on me and I’m cold to your advice

Stop pretending we can make love

And then this fighting will be up

It’s just an excuse, I’m so tired of you

Draining my energy, why can’t you leave me be?

That’s it, I’m out, it’s worth surrendering

I’ve been spendin’ so much time tryin’

(Trying so hard)

To put up with you and I’m not lyin’

(It’s all the truth, puttin’ up with you)

It’s getting’ harder and harder to pull through the day

(It’s draggin’ out baby)

We can’t have a conversation without our tempers on the way

(Can’t talk to you no more)

And I understand a couple can get through this

(It’s a natural thing)

But baby you and I aren’t new to this

(But we’ve gone through way too many times)

We’d be stupid to think it’ll be over with a kiss

(It’ll just happen again)

Listen, listen

(Repeat x1)

I’m out
