lyrics

Eyes like a china doll
Is it taking its toll?
Is it taking its toll?

Skin so close
Yet so cold
Sorry had you never been told?
Had you never been told?

I used to think your love could save me
But you said goodbye
Said you’d destroy me
Oh, you let me go
I used to think if I changed or could change you
I could break, mend, fix, rearrange you
Now I know
Why you said goodbye

A face full of stories you left untold
Never let it unfold
Why can’t you let it unfold?
The healing comes but when it is called
Oh and I would hear it all
I’d hear it all

I used to think your love could save me
But you said goodbye
Said you’d destroy me
Oh you let me go
I used to think if I changed or could change you
I could break mend fix rearrange you
Now I know
Why you said goodbye

If I could
If I could then I would send this back in time
Send a song saying “girl, you’re gonna be alright
Nothing’s wrong carry on gonna be just fine” x 2

Oh I used to
Oh I used to
Oh I used to
But I grew and I grew and I grew

If I could…
(Da da da da da…) Oh I used to…
