I've seen the way you look at me
I've seen you waiting patiently
I'm fine... well, I lied

If what we are is feeling low
I'd fear this if I had a soul
But you're still mine

I was afraid of being chained
I found a woman who could mend and bend
All of my deepest insights and thoughts

And it's just one more round, one more
One more round and I'm done

So you need assurance that everything's gonna be fine
'Cause you're just a woman who's everything good in my life

And though we've been over, weeping over, our last goodbye
I've learned to live with these fatal gifts
And still you're mine, so I...

So I wrote you this song
But you won't sing along to me
To sing...

The memories that used to be
Are carved into a sweet gum tree
Outside my place where I touched your face

And it was one more round, one more
One more round that I longed for

Still you need assurance that everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, you're just a woman who's everything good in my life

And though we've been over, weeping over, our last goodbye
Well I've learned to live with these fatal gifts
And still you're mine, so I...

So I wrote you this song
You're not here to sing along with me
To sing...
