But For Me

There are times when "how long"

Is like howl and so long

To the times you knew before

Never mind the wherefores

and the whys don't care for

little hairs that we split anymore

You and I don't know the reason why we fell apart

Never really find the reason why

Could it be that really there was distance in between?

Miles from heart to heart

No man's a island but for me

Your voice a shore across the sea

I hear it now so distantly

And will eternally

Know your worth and hold her

To your breast and shoulder

All the weight you knew before

In time it'll bid you a fond kiss

And you'll find that what you miss

Is now easy to ignore

You and I don't know the reason why we fell apart

Never really find the reason why

Could it be our lives are islands, separate and vast?

Miles from heart to heart

No man's a island but for me

Your voice a shore across the sea

I hear it now so distantly

And will eternally

There's nowhere left for me to hide

An island with a heart inside

Breaking

Repeat the words "my love we tried"

Above the tears already cried

Aching

No man's a island but for me

Your voice a shore across the sea

I hear it now so distantly

And will eternally

will eternally

will eternally
