You Said

(album: The Things We Left Behind - 2009)

You once said you could read my mind
So I thought about clouds
And told you lies
Still I always thought
You could see what hides
Behind these broken eyes
We stood on a hill far from the city glow
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow

You looked to the north star
You looked back through me
You wondered
Who was the more deceived
The man in the moon
Or all the stars in the sky
While the sky turns
Like a giant wheel
You said that I
Was your cross to bare
Still you liked it better
When I was there
But you were tired
Of having to play the role
Of being there for someone
Who's always out of control
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow

You once said you could read my mind
So I thought about clouds
And I told you lies
