a love that didn't love backa love that tried to love back
(hard) but failed, stepped on by experience dragged away by abandoned words taking their revenge (softly, slowly) a love that began like the crash of drums into a song that went on with a bridge spanning miles and a chorus just bright enough to make me believe (hard) this love could love us back, and stay past the end of the show, through the slow shuffle of a drunken crowd and i'd take your hand (naturally) and lead you home (steadily) and show you my mind (carefully) but this love recoiled (fearfully) and did not love again |
