THESE THINGS

I have a pine cone and my pain
A bundle of pens and frayed nerves
And I've been flattened by a freight train
Tell me what purpose our love serves

CHORUS:
And what does it benefit me to have these things
And not have you... and not have you...
(x2)

I gave you my love and my heart
You gave me your pen and our secret place
But you wanted it to end before it could start
Still all these things I can't erase
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE

I told you my reasons and my needs
You gave me some berries and a flower
Took me to the movies I took you out to eat
Now I can't escape, these memories have power
REPEAT CHORUS

I made you my promise and my card
You told my fortune and sealed my fate
Now letting go is proving to be too hard
But love is love and it's never too late
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
