lyrics

Nights like this were meant for lovers
That’s how they begin
Whisper soft like angel songs
That drift in on the wind

But it only takes a word
To make you shudder in your soul
And that’s all it took tonight
To leave us both like steel and stone

Chorus:
But I can’t live without you
Oh I know I made a mess
I cursed and cried about you,
I could not have meant it less
I could not have meant it less

We were never strong enough
To keep this in our heads
But we were never meant to say
These stupid things we’ve said

And I don’t trust me anymore
Than you can trust me now
Oh but I can’t help hoping good will come
Though I can’t tell you how

CHORUS

And I’m no good at this,
It’s like the story of my life
How I’ve been pounding fists
Against the one sure thing in mine
You’re the one sure thing in mine
