You Tell A Tale

(album: If These Streets Could Talk - 2005)

I search your words,
Fish for breaks in every line.
You say you'll paint a picture in my mind.
I'm paying attention to details,
And searching for any misleading ideas
You tell a tale.
One grand enough to carry me away.

'Cause I know where you've been,
And I know what you've done with him.
I hope it's worth what we lost.
Take your time with your goodbyes,
'Cause this will be the last time
I sit by with eyes closed tight.

And it's hard to know,
If I had caught this months ago.
I could have faced myself,
Saved myself from this disease.
It's killing me faster,
With every single second you are gone.
You needed an answer but when I said, "yes"
I meant "forevermore!"

'Cause I know where you've been,
And I know what you've done with him.
I hope its worth what we lost.
Take your time with your goodbyes,
'Cause this will be the last time
I sit by with eyes closed tight.

I look into your eyes
And see that your colors changing
I wish that I could change with you
And when you said forever did you mean it to be true?
Or was it another tale from you?

I look into your eyes
And see that your colors changing
I wish that I could change with you
And when you said forever did you mean it to be true?
Or was it another tale from you?

I look into your eyes
And see that your colors changing
I wish that I could change with you
And when you said forever did you mean it to be true?
Or was it another tale from you?

I look into your eyes
(From you, from you)
And see that your colors changing
(From you, from you)
I wish that I could change with you
(From you, from you)
And when you said forever did you mean it to be true?
(From you, from you)
Or was it another tale from you?
