lyrics

darling, what have you done?
you wagered all your riches on the sun
seems like every time it ends before the start
couldn’t have been anything there to protect your tender heart

tender heart, tender heart, they see it from afar
they use it as a guiding evening star
while keeping theirs safe in tightly locked jar
as you freely give, all the love you are

darlin, you messed it up this time
and you know I said, oh keep yourself in line
but you tried to keep it, you fell right through
you’ve got you’re pain too, oh it’s nothing to do

it’s nothing, it’s nothing, it’s nothing, i don’t even know you
there was nothing there for me to attach to
it doesn’t matter what they put me through
I still come crawling back, ready to renew

darlin, why are you carried by fear?
while in my dreams I weave fingers through your hair
it really just takes crumbs to make you fall
what consolation is it, that at least you gave your all?

gave your all, gave your all, learned not to play small
and how to breathe your joy against their wall
it’s not your fault they give and then withdraw
and don’t know how to heed a caring call

darlin, you can’t cope the way they cope
all these times, you’ve been bold enough to hope
but hope leads you right through to the abyss
people piling pain onto each person they kiss

another’s kiss, another’s kiss, vapid vacant bliss
do you want love or to reminisce?
at some point you just have to witness this
instead of picking at scabs of all past loves amiss

darling, what have you done?
you thought another runner was the one
found another place where love can’t be born
you brought your rose, and fell over on the thorn

the thorn, the thorn, what could I blame you for?
I’m just as scared behind my open door
when I see you, I see through a mirror
just another heart hurting from before
