Nature of Things

There was a time
When you were all I had
And every night
I cried I loved you like mad
But love it changes
Like the moon
Like winter bears spring
That’s just the nature of things
I tried to fight it
This fire growing dim
And I watched you hide it
What a mess we’ve been in
The waves don’t look back
The winds blow through the leaves
I’ll take their lead
Cause that’s the nature of things
So I’ll walk away
I’ll be the one they say is bad
Cause we both know we’re afraid
To leave love in the past
Oh it should kill me
It should pull on my heart strings
But i’m doing fine
Cause thats the nature of things
