A Thousand Matches - Passenger

Lying on the mattress

'Cause my friend's crazy sister took my bed away

Sleeping she looked like an actress

A theory I didn't practice

I said there's got to be a better way

She said you light a thousand matches

When you finally set fire when you run away

So why'd you go and do it when you knew

That you would go and I would stay

I hit the wall in frustration

The conversation had been circling for days

She said don't take it out on him

For the wall has always been supportive

In the best of ways

We're laughing and crying like mad men

Dying in the snow

For just one second it was funny

That she would have to stay and I would go

And I said I love you know I love you so

When you love someone well

You've got to let them know

And she said nothing's changed I love you the same

But when you love someone sometimes

You gotta let them go

She handed me a stone in the perfect shape of a heart

She said I'm gonna take this home

For I know you'll only lose it somewhere after dark

In some faces so terribly seem

To lose everything you own

She didn't mean it how it sounded

What she meant was she would stay and I would go

And I said I love you know I love you so

When you love someone

Well you've got to let them know

And she said nothing's changed I love you the same

When you love someone sometimes

You gotta let them go

Sometimes you tear it all apart

To see the wood from the trees

Sometimes you break your own heart

To set yourself free

I walked her to the station

Hesitation in our movements and our tongue

Words finally left after realizing

How uncomfortable they've grown

See what you want more you need

Well they seldomly succeed to grow

We reluctantly agreed that when you love someone

You've got to let them go
