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
And 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
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 A.M. somewhere
They're packing up 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
And so it begins
And 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
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 A. M somewhere
They're packing up the pieces
Of a broken love affair
They're making it look

The cries are just the start
To a fallen angel
While one hand takes the cross
Another lights the candle
It's 5 A. M somewhere
Packing up the pieces
Of a broken love affair
They're making it look easy
They're making it look easy
