All for a Love

Tell me why we gotta leave it behind this time
Asking why we never know where to chalk the line every time
Looking through windows that you’ve never even looked through before
Pushing the distance that is all too familiar
Asking of close friends what should never be asked for
All for the love that’s not felt as this before

Keeps all the things I’ve collected up the ladder stored, want more
Packed all the letters we’ve written away in drawers, we’ll write more
One of these days I hoped to wake with my feet on the floor
I’ve had hopes of finding us sitting in the same chairs we’ve sat before
All of this waiting seems so goddamned uncalled for
Because of my feelings that got all messed up and more
Because of my feelings that got all messed up and more

There’s a lot to live for honey, and how should I get around
When I can feel your love and I cannot let you down
There’s a lot to love for lover, and why should you wait it out
When I can see our love is dragging you across the ground

There’s a lot to live for, honey, and how should I get around
When I can feel your love and I know I let you down
There’s a lot to love for, lover, and why should you wait it out
When I can see our love is dragging you down
