Ruins

I, I shoulda spoken
Down by the ocean
When you said we were broken

You said everything's changing
Your heart's rearranging
We were just eighteen
Didn't know what I love you really means

But I shoulda said it
'Cause I woulda meant it
And now that I found it
Oh, it's hard to forget it

How could we know
Who we would be
When you were still living in that house by the sea
But

If you're gonna break my heart, just do it
I think a part of me has always known
You're gonna leave my life in ruins
So why am I still by the phone?

Just so we can take it too far and lose it
You know, I got this feeling in my bones
You're gonna leave my life in ruins
So what's another night alone?

It's been
So many lifetimes
So many midnights
For so many years

And I
Just wish I could reach you
I wish I could hear your
Words through your tears

And sometimes I call you
I don't leave a message
'Cause what would you say if I actually said it

And how could we know
Who we would be
Secretly falling, so in love by the sea
But

If you're gonna break my heart, just do it
I think a part of me has always known
You're gonna leave my life in ruins
So why am I still by the phone?

Just so we can take it too far and lose it
You know, I got this feeling in my bones
You're gonna leave my life in ruins
So what's another night alone?

Every time that I talk to you
It gets harder to face the truth
We're in love, you live with someone else
I go home and I blame myself

If you're gonna break my heart, just do it
I think a part of me has always known
You're gonna leave my life in ruins
So why am I still by the phone?

Just so we can take it too far and lose it
You know, I have this feeling in my bones
You're gonna leave my life in a ruin
So what's another night alone?
