I Tried To Tell You It Would Go This Way

I'm falling from grace once again
trying to bend in your over bearing wind
but I'm not going to last much longer
for you see the storm is waiting to begin

You know this can't go on
living this double life on a whim
it's safe to say we can't break any promises
when we won't even talk about them

You're driving me, the insanity that lies within
in the distance, my salvation always just beyond
why does one simple little word hold so much power
it keeps us from our dream and slowly kills us from inside

Your hands are so cold when you touch me
has the heat from our love grown so old
are you just going through the motions
torn between what used to be you and I

I tried to tell you it would go this way
that the love would come pouring like the rain
then everything would not be the same
knowing that one of us was to blame

How could it survive with all these lies

Yea I'm falling from grace once again
trying to bend in your over bearing wind
you and I are not going to last much longer
for you see this storm is waiting to begin

And you know this can't go on forever
living this double life we live on a whim
it's safe to say we can't break any promises
when we won't even talk about them

They're all one sided in your favor
so please tell me how this was fair to me
when you always knew from the beginning
just how this love affair would end

I tried to tell you it would go this way
that the love would come pouring like the rain
then everything all at once would not be the same
one of us knowing that one of us would be to blame

I tried to tell you it would go this way
that the love would come pouring like the rain

I tried to tell you it would go this way
that the love would come pouring like the rain

Then everything...all at once...would not be the same
