The Death of Me

On a Sunday, near September

Where you woke surprised to remember

How the light attaches to a change of heart

What was simple, now there's questions

The kind that I don't look my best in

And the ghost of me will keep us far apart

And you, no you don't deserve this

And I, don't know how to work this but

Before you go, before you go

I just wanted you to know

That I would, that I would

I would love you if I could

But my unsteady heart's not ready

And you would only get what's left of me

Only this, only this, is gonna be the death of me

It's gonna be the death of me

It's gonna be

I would give you, anything if

I had anything to give left

But the phantoms here will never have their fill

I would tell you, I don't miss her

Cries of love reduced to a whisper

But the truth is that a ghost it haunts me still

And you, no you don't deserve this

And I, don't know how to work this but

Before you go, before you go

I just wanted you to know

That I would, that I would

I would love you if I could

But my unsteady heart's not ready

And you would only get what's left of me

Only this, only this, is gonna be the death of me

It's gonna be the death of me

It's gonna be

I've forgotten how it feels

To have my head over my heels

I don't wanna walk away

But it's not fair to let you stay

I fall apart, beyond a kiss

I cast away upon your lips

Only this, only

Be the death of me

Gonna be, gonna be

Gonna be the death of me

Gonna be, gonna be

Gonna be the death of me

Oh, gonna be

It's gonna be the death of me

Yeah, yeah-a, it's gonna be the death of me

The death of me, the death of me

It's gonna be the death of me

The death of me, the death of me

Gonna be the death of me
