Excuse

All the songs I got,

Couldn't save the love you lost.

An arrow was aimed that shot down our dove.

In the court, where you are king;

Your love, it has always reigned supreme.

What else could I have wanted?

Nothing babe.

Sure we've taken our turns,

We took turns to clear the burns,

Am I right to say they're not always for the worst?

They'll be more than once where you'll think back and smile.

I know you thought you could not afford,

All the things that I asked you for,

But I know for me, your love always came first.

I'll never forget your silly comments and flaws,

Nor the beautiful things about you that you say you hate.

I'll remember every second of our every date.

Life reminds me of your face,

All the time in whatever I do,

And if it takes me too long to get over you,

So be it babe.

I won't say that I understand when I really can't.

I'm no greatness, just a girl aching for your hands.

So if you say our love can't take the test,

And that this is for the best-

It's okay, even though i'll be alone,

I'll still see every breaking dawn,

Here's my lousy excuse for moving on.
