BEHIND AN ALWAYS UNFORGETTABLE LAUGH 
THERE ARE TRACES OF THE WAYS YOU USED TO CRY 
CANNOT COUNT THE WAYS YOU USED TO LOVE ME 
BUT I CAN COUNT THE WAYS YOU USED TO TRY 
 
HEAVEN KNOWS I’VE WATCHED YOU FALL 
TO FIND THE MAKINGS OF A LIE
AND SO IT BEGINS
SO IT TAKES A TOLL ON 
SO IT NEVER ENDS 
SO YOU BEGIN TO HOLD ON 
TO ALL OF THE LITTLE THINGS 
THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND
ALL OF THE LITTLE THINGS 
YOU KEEP TO REMIND 
 
THE CRIES ARE JUST THE START 
TO A FALLEN ANGEL 
WHILE ONE HAND TAKES THE CROSS
ANOTHER LIGHTS THE CANDLE 
IT’S 5 AM SOMEWHERE 
THEY’RE PACKING UP OF THE PIECES 
OF A BROKEN LOVE AFFAIR 
AND MAKING IT LOOK EASY 
 
WHY WOULD I HAVE TO SPARE YOU 
ALONE IS NOT YOUR FAVORITE GAME
HOW DARE YOU 
I'M COUNTING DAYS 
LIKE I WON’T EVER GET THEM BACK AGAIN 
 
HEAVEN KNOWS I’VE WATCHED YOU FALL 
TO FIND THE MAKINGS OF A LIE 
SO IT BEGINS
SO IT TAKES A TOLL ON 
SO IT NEVER ENDS 
SO YOU BEGIN TO HOLD ON
TO ALL OF THE LITTLE THINGS 
THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND
ALL OF THE LITTLE THINGS 
THAT YOU KEEP TO REMIND 
 
THE CRIES ARE JUST THE START 
TO A FALLEN ANGEL 
WHILE ONE HAND TAKES THE CROSS
ANOTHER LIGHTS THE CANDLE 
IT’S 5 AM SOMEWHERE 
THEY’RE PACKING UP THE PIECES 
OF A BROKEN LOVE AFFAIR 
THEY’RE MAKING IT LOOK EASY
