I can’t find the words to reconnect with your heart
We’re always growing and I guess we grew apart
You’re not the same, I guess it’s meant to be that way

We promised that we’d find our love again one day
You let go willingly, I’ve got myself to blame
I’m not the same, I guess it’s meant to be that way

Did I expect that you would come back for me
Did I think that somehow we were meant to be
No, not at all, not at all, not at all
We were just in love at seventeen

These tears I cry are real but they are not for you
I’ve learned that every heart that loves will break in two
It’s the same, every love has felt this pain

You’re a theif, you robbed my while I closed my eyes
I can’t escape the wreckage of my heart’s first fire
I’m burning still, burning still, burning still
Reckless love was bound to fail

I’m not trying to shift the blame
I know I’ve caused my share of pain
But tonight the broken one is me
My human heart is torn, I’ll replace it with a paper one
So I won’t hurt anymore
Yes we’ve changed, we’re not the same
We can’t expect to be that way
