and so it breaks like this:
i kept you dancing
on the tips of your toes
but you couldn't keep
me warm,
i was reckless but a safe enough
place to call home.
you never called.
and i've always been alone
even with someone beside me
you didn't change this,
i never wanted you to.
bad luck and good luck and
our luck out the window
but you always stopped for
a kiss and i know i will forever
miss that. sometimes it's
easier and sometimes hard
to find the difference in who
we wanted to be and in who
we are.

i'll pass you by this
time
i'll pass you by
if you promise
not to smile.
