lyrics

Rain came walking across the rooftops, brushing past my ear into my eye
Following a draft to the front porch, we toss over a sheet and watch the sky

Softly put, mysterious forces slowly cave us in, yet you don't mind

Sitting, shaking, I'd bend for you
Won't you just let me coil?

Darling, whisper to me gently, soothing sentimental symphonies

Young hearts, they say, one day they break
Sticks and stones, broken bones, possibly...
I guess I'll see

After all those wasted (three hearts, I don't know.. maybe more?)
How much hurt can one man take before he bends and breaks?

Young hearts, they say, one day they break
Sticks and stones, broken bones, possibly..
I guess I'll see
