Lyrics
The sun doesn't shine anymore and
the waves don't crash on the beach
anymore,
the music doesn't sound
sweet anymore and the wine's all
turned
The city doesn't seem kind
anymore
and the ocean doesn't
clear my mind like before
the
breath won't melt on my skin
anymore
and the candles won't
burn.
and you did this because
you were broken,
and I fell down
because I was hoping.
if I held
on I could steer you through the
darkness and out the other
side...
but sometimes the best
laid plans must lie...
The sheets don't fit on the bed anymore
and the coffee doesn't
taste strong like before
the jokes. they just don't make me laugh anymore
and I can't even
light the fire.
The sand
doesn't slip through my toes
anymore
The clothes won't
fit on my skin anymore and
my
key won't fit in the lock on my
door,
even though you are
inside..
and you did this
because you were broken,
and I fell down, because I was
hoping.
if I held on I could
steer you through the darkness and
out the other side...
sometimes
the best laid plans, must lie
And you left your family,
You turned your head and never checked on me
You slammed the door and then
you probably climbed into bed,
with her.
The night won't
slip into dawn like before and the
The phone won't ring with that
song anymore
And I don't
feel strong anymore and it even
hurts to sing.
And my god was
it ten years for nothing
Was I a fool did I have it coming,
Don't I get to walk away with something,
or is that for you to
decide?
Sometimes the best laid
plans,
are a lie
are a lie
are a lie...
are a lie.............
and you did this because you were broken,
and I fell down because I was
hopin'
if I held on I could
steer you through the darkness and
out the other side...
but
sometime the best laid plans must lie...
