I always found it funny That your favourite part of a movie
Was trying to guess the end before I could I should have seen it coming
But I got so lost in the story It was over long before I understood
* And I can't stop your stone from rolling in And wrecking things
But shelter me until it's true And all this time you had a gentle way of holding me
So could you please release me that way too?
** 'Cause it's okay to say goodbye Some things live, but all things die
And I can't let go Of all of the things I hoped we'd be
And I don't need the reasons why 'Cause we both know How hard we tried
If coming apart And breaking my heart is what you need
Break it carefully Break it carefully
Well don't you think it's funny? That I'm asking you for your mercy
After all the nights you asked me for a dance? I guess I'm kinda lucky
That we got so close to the real thing When so many never even get the chance
( * , ** )
I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly
If coming apart And breaking my heart is what you need
Break it carefully Break it carefully
