Testo Faithfully

I surrendered you
In all the shades of love and hell you put me through
And I remember you
In all the ways you would and wouldn't want me to
But if I lay down and close my eyes
I've got a photographic memory of your brighter sides

So when I stand back In the hallway
And I hang you in a gold frame
All the dark and shaded parts
And the innocence we lost
Oh my love you have to trust
There's a sympathetic touch
When I hang you
In the hallway
And I'm looking at your likeness in a gold frame
I promise I'll be trying to
Capture all the ways you
Made me feel
So when I'm painting
I'll paint you faithfully
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully)

We were living in the fallout
In a war of words
Where no one is the good guy
It's not about who fired first
We don't clutter our heroes
With justifications
They never live in the morally gray bits
But I'm not a hero
An neither were you
There's nothing that I wanna misconstrue

When I open
To a new page
And I'm dusting off the sweetness and heartache
All the dark and shaded parts
And the innocence we lost
Oh my love you have to trust
There's a sympathetic touch
When you make it
To the last page
And the all the words running through you like a freight train
I promise I'll be trying to
Capture all the ways you made me feel
When I'm writing
Oh I'll write you faithfully

(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully)

And in the middle of the heat
I said some things to you, I swore I'd not repeat
Lost the plot, and ripped the canvas right in two
Oh love, oh love
In the trail of the car crash
And all the things we couldn't ever take back
Oh it left me black and blue
I don't speak in absolutes
Since the time that I told you
I'd always love you faithfully

(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully faithfully)
(Faithfully)
