And I gave it big sometimes
And I gave it in my own sweet time, I'm just leaving"
You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum
Maybe it was to learn how to choose
But it is too late
Love was everything they said it would be
"I gave my love didn't I?
Or maybe it was for love that we met
Maybe it was to lessen our pride
Maybe it's just nature's way
So you try to love bigger better still
Oh it breaks your body down
Maybe it was to learn how to fight
Love was everything they said it would be
And love forgot to make me too blind to see
Love made sweet and sad the same
First I turn to you then I turn away
You're bangin' on the beach like an old tin drum
Or maybe it was for the games that we played
And know you'll never be the same
You're chickening out, aren't you?
Maybe it was to learn how to laugh
But love forgot to make me too blind to see
So take a lesson from the strangeness you feel
I cant wait for you to make the whole kingdom come so I'm leavin'
So you try to hurt me back
And find it in your heart to kneel down and say
And love made sweet and sad the same
I can't wait for you to make the whole kingdom come so I'm leavin'
Maybe it was to learn to cry
Maybe it was to learn how to lose
You're chickening out, aren't you?
Or maybe it was for the love then we met
