Not Your Fault

Felt like a movie but you wouldn't play it

The scene was set but all the colours faded

It's been two years since I loved

Don't rule this out, 'cause

I could breathe with you

And I could sleep with you

Now the nights are long

And my chest feels wrong

And you left me in the dark like a dog out in the yard

Thought I'd never get this wrong

I know it's not your fault

But this hurts me

'Cause when you're what I want

What do words mean

When we feel so good together

I haven't seen you in forever

But you're still what I want

Let me love you

Brown eyes I could fall right into

This got messier than my old bedroom

Like driving in a car with no headroom

Or hearing someone loving in the next room

No one's ever made me feel

Like I got the short end of the deal

Without you I'm missing out

Baby, how's your life living out?

I could breathe with you

And I could sleep with you

Now the nights are long

And my chest feels wrong

And you left me in the dark like a dog out in the yard

Thought I'd never get this wrong

I know it's not your fault

But this hurts me

'Cause when you're what I want

What do words mean

When we feel so good together

I haven't seen you in forever

But you're still what I want

Let me love you

Like Sylvia under the fig tree

There's so many ways things could go for me

And she's longing

For something more

But this hurts me

What do words mean to me?
