I heard your callin', soon I'd fallen I tumbled to the ground Gave up myself without a sound My life it shattered, it didn't matter 'Cause I loved you through and through I was so ashamed of what I let you do I fought all the reasons I knew it wasn't right, every night It's understood we can't go on I can't be your friend, it's gone on too long It's understood that everything dies We knew from the start, so it ain't no surprise All the words we said came to an end It's understood I'd think about ya, lost in nostalgia For a time that never was And kept on going, just because I thought I knew ya, was all illusion I made up in my mind Scared to death at what I'd find You're just a stranger I lived with every day, so far away It's understood we can't go on I can't be your friend, it's gone on too long It's understood that everything dies We knew from the start, so it ain't no surprise All the words we said came to an end It's understood No one wants to admit that the one they love is no good Broke my heart so many times, more than any person should Your love was so addictive, was in denial for so long Who knew that love was such a lonely place to be It's understood we can't go on I can't be your friend, it's gone on too long It's understood that everything dies We knew from the start, so it ain't no surprise All the words we said came to an end It's understood
