Testo You Will Not Stay

I thought you knew you were mine
the other night, we sealed our fate in the bed we made
couldn't read your mind
all laid out; a picture of you
on your bed there was a spread of all you've read
the poison of truth

all the movies and cds stare at me a wall of your life
and now you're telling me that what you need
is so very different from what i am

and now you will not stay
no matter if i should say
that when i slept breathing the nape of your neck
it was the only time i felt awake

all your tears are sweet like saline
they streak your face but can't displace all your grace
you float like a queen

all the words we have heard are so absurb
but i think you believe just a bit in love's receipe, there's no guarantee and the warranty
expires as soon as you stray

and now you will not stay
no matter if i should say
that i hoped you'd be the one i would hold
as we laid and watched each other grow old
now my love will be buried untold
because i can't let it go
