that's how the story goes
she'll leave you blinded
all your flaws exposed
and friend's will fight it (out)
till the bitter end,
when get out of the playhouse,
out of all that you pretend.
shed that skin dear,
give the old a shake.
give your heart a rest dear
give it all back anyway.
arguments get heated
whether truth or true mistake.
and emotions, they've departed.
sometimes the run to the plane is just too late.
perhaps a bonfire is what you'll make.
lover's quarrel,
that's what they will do,
everything you ever wanted,
slowly becoming unglued.
and those seams will stretch with time,
well they always do,
those damn growing pains,
and should you still wear them,
they'd fit you, just the same.
lover's quarrel
that's how she'll make her mark
what you thought was a bonfire,
she wanted you to take as a spark.
