CANDLES IN THE RAIN

I wake up on the same side of the bed day after day
You will ask if I’m alright, then we’ll talk about the rain
And I know you take your coffee black and you’re always running late to catch your train
I smile as you say goodbye and that’s all we ever say

(chorus)
Cause we settled for a lesser love
Hoping “you and me” would be enough
And now we’re left to dance with the ghosts we made (we made)
Did we think that we could rise above
The fickle whims in the game of love
What a shame
We became
Like candles in the rain

Was the truth always in your eyes, just behind your emerald gaze?
Did I know, when we rolled the dice, we would slowly fall from grace?
Love will last when you’ve lost it once and you’re not afraid to lose it all again
Better live with a broken heart than to die an empty frame.

(chorus)
But we settled for a lesser love
Hoping “you and me” would be enough
And now we’re left to dance with the ghosts we made (we made)
Did we think that we could rise above
The fickle whims in the game of love
What a shame
We remain
Like candles in the rain

(chorus)
Cause we settled for a lesser love
Hoping “you and me” would be enough
And now we’re left to dance with the ghosts we made (we made)
Did we think that we could rise above
The fickle whims in the game of love
What a shame
We remain
Like candles in the rain

HALF OF ME

I got nothing left to say 
So I’ll take my coat and I’ll be on my way 
I got nothing left to lose 
No spirit left to bear the bruise


But I stand tall down at your feet 
I won’t show you that your words they made me bleed 
You’ve got it all, I’m incomplete 
Never thought we would amount to compromise and deceit


I’m gonna walk away with half of me 
We were never really meant to be 
You belong with someone else and before you leave 
I’m gonna walk away with nothing else but the ghost of a memory

Used to think that we would soar 
Now I find myself in pieces on the floor 
With my back against the wall 
I know there ain’t no lower places left for me to fall

But I stand tall down at your feet 
I won’t show you that your words they made me bleed 
You’ve got it all, I’m incomplete 
Never thought we would amount to compromise and deceit


I’m gonna walk away with half of me 
We were never really meant to be 
You belong with someone else and before you leave 
I’m gonna walk away with nothing else but the ghost of a memory


Nevermind about the regrets that we made 
And all the memories which cut me like a blade 
There’s nothing left of what we had before 
So I’ll leave half of myself at your door

Gonna walk away with half of me 
We were never really meant to be 
You belong with someone else and before you leave 
Gonna walk away with nothing else but a half of me


I’m gonna walk away with half of me 
We were never really meant to be 
You belong with someone else and before you leave 
I’m gonna walk away with nothing else but the ghost of a memory
