Love the Way It Burnt

Lyrics: Hwavey Music: Hwavey Arranger: Hwavey I remember how it began Your smile felt like a promise then We talked about forever Believing it would never end I loved the way it started Like a dream that wouldn't fade Then everything just shifted All the warmth you gave, you took away Now I'm standing in the memory Watching it all turn into grey When did it start going wrong Fewer words, growing cold You said you were just tired But I saw the light going out In the space we once held I hate the way it ended So quiet and so cruel From closeness to strangers Just one turn apart Now we're less than strangers With a broken heart Maybe all good things break Maybe we were meant to part But I'm still here where we were And you've gone far, far away I loved the way it started And I hate what it became All the tomorrows we painted Are just yesterday's rain Now I'm cleaning up the aftermath And all this silent pain It was beautiful at the start Then it fell apart The story wasn't long But long enough to keep me From smiling for so long
