Let life grab me and turn me to nothing
Let it leave me without you
I’ll find your name in a crossword puzzle
I promised you a song, and here it is for you
It’s too bad everything will be fine until it’s not
It lasted as long as it lasted, laughed until it cried
Let the lights go out, and I’ll see your face
And who am I to demand?
If you have to go, I’ll let you go
I’ll be fine, I’ll stay here
I carry you with what you left in me
Maybe I’ll never love again
Maybe I’ll never love like this again
A little blue butterfly shows me its wings
You live like you’re immortal, you’re sand, yesterday crystal
I felt so small, so outraged
How, without explanation, you slip out of my control?
It lasted as long as it lasted, I loved until it hurt
Every single thing that happened was already chasing us
Under my skin, I will carry you
Under my skin (Ah-ah)
And who am I to demand?
If you have to go, I’ll let you go
I’ll be fine, I’ll stay here
I carry you with what you left in me
I will enter your house, pretend you’re still there
I’ll sit on your bed, breathe in your pillow
I will listen to your records like we used to do
I swear I won’t forget, I swear I won’t forget
I swear I won’t forget
And who am I to demand?
If you have to go, I’ll let you go
I’ll be fine, I’ll stay here
I keep you with what you left in me
Maybe I’ll never love again
Maybe I’ll never love like this again
