Die Alone (In Your Lover's Arms)

(album: The Greatest Mistake Of My Life - 2021)

Sit there, stoic and scarred for weeks at a time. I believed in her so much. I think the saddest part was the fact that... I hadn't realised I'd gone in until I'd come out the other end.

If we all just go to hell
Then why should I regret
All the wasted decades that we spent
Sat in utter silence?
Nobody told me my deathbed
Would be harrowed by hindsight
The truth is you weren't right
For me

Maybe baby
I just can't look you in the eyes
I wasted all your precious time

Bury me in broad daylight
I've already died inside a thousand times
Waving you goodbye tonight, waving you goodbye
Let it be the final time
You place your hand in mine
Waving you goodbye tonight, waving you goodbye
Watching you die alone
In your lover's arms

Paint the walls of dusk with the sound of my name.

When you looked me in the eyes
On that warm, summer night
You might as well have buried me alive
And saved me all the sorrow
If you'd have told me I'd be led
And left out in the cold
I would've kept my soul
And lived my life out on my own

Maybe baby
At least we can say that we tried it
Lately baby
It feels like I spent all my life up
Maybe baby
I still can't look you in the eyes
I wasted all your precious time

Bury me in broad daylight
I've already died inside a thousand times
Waving you goodbye tonight, waving you goodbye
Let it be the final time
You place your hand in mine
Waving you goodbye tonight, waving you goodbye
Watching you die alone
In your lover's arms
In your lover's arms
In your lover's arms
In your lover's arms

Have you ever felt alone inside
The arms of someone else and tried
To tell yourself that they were fine?
A lifetime lost to a long, long lie

Let me start again
Let me start all over again
Let me start again
Let me start all over again

Let me start again
Let me start all over again
Let me start again
Let me start all over again

Let me start again
Let me start all over again
Let me start again
Let me start all over again
