Every love I chased walked away A lonely heart with so much to say I gave all I had, but it was never enough Left on the outside of the life I dreamed of I just wanted a chance to be loved, to feel whole To be the one holding the heart I’d stolen But if I go and my dreams stay undone There’ll be tears in the coffin, even when I'm gone I fell hard every single time Believed in the magic, tried to make it mine But they never saw me, never gave me a glance Just a man with a heart, but never a chance I dream of a love that’s too far to touch A face in the crowd, the one I want so much They live in my mind, but not in my arms A bittersweet ache, a never-ending charm I just wanted a chance to be loved, to feel whole To be the one holding the heart I’d stolen But if I go and my dreams stay undone There’ll be tears in the coffin, even when I'm gone If I ever find her, and she looks my way If the stars align on a perfect day I’d say with a smile, as I take her hand You're the best thing that's ever happened to me In this promised land I hold onto hope, though it cuts like a knife A spark in the dark keeps me fighting for life But shadows of longing pull me apart A prisoner to dreams that weigh on my heart I just wanted a chance to be loved, to feel whole To be the one holding the heart I’d stolen But if I go and my dreams stay undone There’ll be tears in the coffin, even when I'm gone So here I lie, with a soul that believed In the love I dreamed of, but never received If my heart’s never held, if my love stays unknown Just know there’ll be tears even in stone
