lyrics

What have I done to you
What have you done to me
We tore each other's hearts apart
Both unintentionally
I did my part, I am not proud
Of ways I wore you out
And I feel at loss
Do you feel at loss?
Do you feel the pain?
Do you feel the cost?

And I am tracing
Your lines across my heart
And I feel them slowly fading
Into a river shaped scar

I wish you well
In case you can't tell
I always have
We'll see each other from time to time
We'll talk like distant friends
But don't look me in the eyes
Don't break the fragile ice
We both walk on
I'll think about you for a while
I'll think about you and carry on

And I am tracing
Your lines across my heart
And I feel them slowly fading
Into a river shaped scar
And yes, sometimes I still wish
For another go for you and me
But the river, it reminds me
There's too much water under the bridge

I feel water running deep
Deep and cold and muddy
This magic thing we used to be
Now turned heavy, gray, and bloody

And I am tracing
Your lines across my heart
And I feel them slowly fading
Into a river shaped scar
And yes, sometimes I still wish
For another go for you and me
But the river, it reminds me
There's too much water under the bridge
