Damn This Love

(album: Mousetrap Heart - 2010)

I remember thinking everything
Was possible and true
I'd turn the key and start the car
And drive to somewhere new
And all the roads were open
With both our hearts aflame
And never stop to wonder
That the self was not the same
We watched a burnt horizon
With the promise of the gold
I looked into your eyes
I was sure I saw your soul
It was just a mere reflection
Of things we'd never be
We lost our true direction
On a forced trajectory, well

You threw it all away
As we were flying to the sun
It's too late to turn around
Damn this love
Damn this love

We drove out to the edge
Where you can walk into the light
Through the desert, through the morning
Through the oceans, through the night
I felt the engines racing
Like the blood beneath your skin
We slipped the bonds of earth below
As gravity gave in
I swear I'd seen it all
The stars came into view
I asked the greatest questions
But they all came back to you
I thought that this was heaven
I thought that we could be
The brightest constellation
In the goddamn galaxy, but

You threw it all away
As we were flying to the sun
It's too late to turn around
Damn this love
Damn this love [x2]

Nothing else I can do now

I remember thinking everything
Was possible and true
I'd turn the key and start the car
And drive to something new
And all the roads were open
With both our hearts aflame
I never stopped to wonder
That the self was not the same

But you threw it all away
As we were flying to the sun
It's too late to turn around
Damn this love
Damn this love

The earth the sky and moon
The world that we once knew is gone
And I'm out here all alone
Damn this love
Damn this love

Damn this love
Damn this love
