The Longing I Have in Your Leaving

The war memorial where we exchanged our vows
Laughing and joking but look at us now
Have we been the same since those few weeks
Looking at you, looking through me

I gave blood today for you and May
I wanted you well, I wanted you okay
I wish you understood

The longing I have in your leaving
A love to me still teething
So come back here with me

I only long for the past and whatever's next
Like when I show you the city and how it connects
We'd jump on our bikes and go looking for whores
Because what else is there to do when we're bored?

I'm tired today, my body aches
I want to be well, I want to be okay
I wish you understood

The longing I have in your leaving
A love to me still teething
A touch to my spine and breathing
So come back here with me

This is an ode to lasting love and breaking up
This is an ode to lasting love and breaking up
This is an ode to lasting love and breaking up
This is an ode to lasting love and breaking up

The longing I have in your leaving
A love to me still teething
A touch to my spine and breathing
So come back here with me
