lyrics

When was the last time you loved me?
When did it all fall apart?
When did the end become a part of your plan,
and why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?

It was three weeks before and a Friday I'm sure
when you told me you'd always be mine
Then you laid your head right beside me in bed
and I kissed your cheek like I did time after time

When we woke the next day it was cloudy and grey
and you wished that I'd go back to sleep
but I threw that pillow off your head and I shook you up instead
and we spent the day walking hand in hand through the streets

And a month before that in your red gloves and hat
we huddled close as I kept you warm
when that cold wind did blow you just smiled through the snow
and we trudged along slow my calm in the storm

It was there then I swear don't you lie don't compare
what you feel with what you felt this I'm sure
but between then and now, won't you please tell me how
you decided I can't kiss you goodnight anymore

When was the last time you loved me?
When did it all fall apart?
When did the end become a part of your plan,
and why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?
Why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?

Well I know that you've got your pride
And that stubborn streak and constant need to rationalize
but I know if you'd just told me then
we could have found a way to ease the pain and fall in love again

Those words that you said now at the edge of my bed
they were words that I couldn't hear
the look on your face, that soft but cold embrace,
it was everything I'd learned to fear

You said goodbye with a tear and a sigh,
I said, "I'll see ya around."
I could not comprehend how if you loved me then
you could leave me alone with my heart on the ground

So when was the last time you loved me?
When did it all fall apart?
When did the end become a part of your plan,
and why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?
why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?
why didn't we try to unbreak your heart?
