You were only 21, took my heart in Washington
You were serious and so damn smart
At 22, we coalesced, hopped the train and headed West to Victoria
I swore that you were the one
Now our skies are always grey
Never know quite what to say
Should have told you, now it's too little too late
Should have told you, now it's too little too late
What I'd give to touch your skin
Feel your fingers let me in, you said "sorry, I'm just a little too tired"
I know I was in the wrong
the Devil told me all along
you'd be ok, but now it's been so long.
Are you ok? Cuz it's been so long.
Ten years in the making
Ten years two hearts breaking
Oh, love me or let me go
In Harbourville, I tried to leave
You had your chance at 23 to forget me
but you begged me to stay
In Lawrencetown at 31, you sat me down and said it's done
then you walked out, a decade gone
You walked out, a decade gone
Too many thoughts fill my head
Too many words gone unsaid, like I miss you
I want to turn you on
Ten years in the making
Ten years two hearts breaking
Oh, love me or let me go
