here comes goodbye, here comes the last time, here comes the start of every sleepless night, the first of every tear i’m gonna cry. here comes the pain, here comes me wishing things would never change, and she was right here in my arms tonight, but here comes goodbye.
i watched you change with the seasons. i wrote you letters but i forgot to mention that, i’m a wreck, i’m a mess, you’re a stranger.
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain Let her sing, if it eases all her pain Let her go, let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be
don’t you dare tell me i am the reason we are here. i spend enough sleepless nights in this bed, to know this isn’t just all in my head.
Remember those walls I built? Well baby, they’re tumbling down And they didn’t even put up a fight They didn’t even make a sound I found a way to let you in But I never really had a doubt Standing in the light of your halo I got my angel now –quote— and i know it’s easy to say, but it’s harder to feel this way. i miss you more than i should, than i thought i could. can’t get my mind off of you, and i hate the phone, but i wish you’d call
believe in me i know you’ve waited for so long believe in me sometimes the weak become the strong
In the air I flew. Through the clouds I fall. And all the things I’ve tried to say, were never easy to explain. They were always meant for you. And all the memories that were made for years and years, I’ve chased this day. They were always for you Always for you.
The words I have to say May well be simple but they’re true Until you give your love there’s nothing more that we can do.
And all you said in your quietest voice Was “I needed you as much as they do”
When I saw you last night I wanted to say, run away with me Away from the cynics That this could be the start of Something truly real… But all that I could say was “hey”
you haven’t found it baby, that’s for sure You rip me up and spread me all around in the dust of the deed of time And this is not a case of lust, you see it’s not a matter of you versus of me It’s fine the way you want me on your own but in the end it’s always me alone
Take away the sensation inside Bitter sweet migraine in my head It’s like a throbbing toothache of the mind I can’t take this feeling anymore Drain the pressure from the swelling, This sensation’s overwhelming, Give me a long kiss goodnight and everything will be alright Tell me that I won’t feel a thing
There’s something in your eyes Is everything all right? You look up to the sky You long for something more, Darlin’ Give me your right hand I think I understand, follow me And you will never have to wish again
“I think sometimes you love someone so much you have to be numb to it, because if you actually felt how much you loved them, it would kill you.”
I hope he never hurts you like I know I hurt you but I was undecided and it was all that I could do but if he says he loves you like I know I loved you then there’s a way to trust him, and I’ll get over you.
I won’t face another day I won’t wait until tomorrow I won’t spend another night without you let me carry you away let me wake you every morning let me wander every day beside you.
all the sadness you carried inside you never showed it, it was easy to hide you’d tell your stories in all their sorrow you’d take the stage like there was no tomorrow.
I am standing right here on a dock that you built. I will try not to look at your face because all that is in you radiates. And it’s more, it is more than i’ll take.
when i got off the plane, after eleven hours of travel and forty years away, the man took my passport and asked me the purpose of my visit, i wrote in my daybook, “to mourn,” and then “to mourn try to live,” he gave me a look and asked if i would consider that business or pleasure, i wrote, “neither.” “for how long do you plan to mourn and try to live?” i wrote, “for the rest of my life”
Music is a total constant. That’s why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? Because a song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in your or the world, that one song says the same, just like that moment.
I know every word that we said was what we both meant Well, we meant it at the time.
if you’re a bird then i’m a bird but if you can’t fly then neither will i cause “in love” is not the right time to die
I’m shyer than your share of men. I’d be honored to be one of them. You’re a fool for the wounded. I’m a man in need of bandages. So, wrap me up and take me home.
What is there to write? What is there to say? Same things happen everyday, not a thing to write, not a thing to say. So I take my pen in hand and start the same old way: Dear, I thought I’d drop a line. The weather’s cool, the folks are fine. I’m in bed each night at nine, PS. I love you. Yesterday we had some rain but all in all, I can’t complain. Was it dusty on the train? PS. I love you. Nothing else to tell you dear except each day seems like a year. Every night I’m dreaming of you. PS. I love you.
tell me you care, tell me you’re listening, tell me that it’s me that you are missing. your answer is long overdue, tell me that it’s true, that i’ve got you.
“Love is a form of prejudice. You love what you need, you love what makes you feel good, you love what is convenient. How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them? But you’ll never meet them.”
i made a wish on a million of the stars, registered your name on a few. that way, if you ever forget who you are, you can look up and see a picture of you.
and we can laugh all we want, know it’s your favorite. and i’ll stare at you all i can, cause you…you’re my favorite.
i remember the first time we danced i remember tunneling through the snow like ants what i don’t recall is why i said i simply can’t sleep in this tiny bed with you, anymore
“This is love, isn’t it? When you notice someone’s absence and hate that absence more than anything? More, even, than you love his presence?”
i hope you remember me when you’re homesick and need a change. i miss your purple hair, i miss the way you taste. i know you’ll come back someday, on a bed of nails i wait. i’m praying that you don’t burn out or fade away.
Do you remember our first subway ride? Our last swim on the east coast? I remember your warm smile in the sun, The daydreaming boy without a shirt on.
This is when you start to shake. This is when you start to stutter. This is when you say I love you. This is when you swear it was only for each other.
all the stars up in the sky, and the leaves in the trees, all the broken bits that make you jump up, and grassy bits in between, all the matter in the world is how much i like you
I cannot refuse your eyes Please don’t look at me tonight My heart beats fast, I know you’re there I pretend like I don’t care
Cause if you jump I will jump too. We will fall together from the building’s ledge, never looking back at what we’ve done. We’ll say it was love cause I would die for you.
for nobody else, gave me a thrill with all your faults, i love you still. it had to be you, wonderful you it had to be you.
I miss the sound of your voice I miss the rush of your skin I miss the still of the silence as you breathe out and I breathe in
instead of beating me up, you should be giving me hope. instead of bringing me down, you should be lifting me up. instead of starting a fire, you should be heating things up. i’d never leave you there, screaming for my love.
