Fall doesn’t linger cause you want it to
The proof’s in the snowflakes in my hair
And I used to know I had a hand to hold to keep me warm
But now there’s nobody there, there’s nobody there
And love doesn’t linger cause you ask it to
The proofs in the way you’ve let me go
We stand at the bus stop you’ve got ten minutes to make me stay
But I know that you won’t, I know you won’t
And I can’t slow down, words run round me til I’m on my knees
You don’t need me no more
Can’t slow down, days run round me til I cannot breathe
And I cannot linger though I’m aching to
Every bone in my body wants to stay
I can’t help but memorize the way you look as you say goodbye
It hits me like water on the sand
It breaks o’er me again and again and again
And I can’t slow down, words run round me til I’m on my knees
You don’t need me no more
Can’t slow down, days run round me til I cannot breathe
I can't stand here waiting to leave you for the last time
Wipe my eyes on my sleeve you're so stone cold
My heart broke into pieces but it's almost time, it's almost time
