It kills me not to know this but I've all but just forgotten What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them As the telling signs of age rain down, a single tear is dropping Through the valleys of an aging face that this world has forgotten There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place And there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds But seldom do these words ring true when I'm constantly failing you Like walls that we just can't break through until we disappear So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save That's when I told her I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh, whoa oh And the day pressed on like crushing weights For no man does it ever wait Like memories of dying days that deafen us like hurricanes Bathed in flames we held the brand, uncurled the fingers in your hand Pressed into the flesh like sand, now do you understand? So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save That's when I told her I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh, whoa oh One thousand miles away, there's nothing left to say But so much left that I don't know We never had a choice, this world is too much noise It takes me under, it takes me under once again I don't hate you I don't hate you, no So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save That's when I told her I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh whoa oh I don't hate you I don't hate you, whoa oh I don't hate you I don't hate you, no, whoa oh, whoa oh
