To Break Hers
I remember the way she looked at me
All wrapped up in my jacket
She was happy
In that moment I could have told her how I felt
But I didn't let the words out
I wasn't honest with myself
Time does lots of damage
Way more damage than you think
When you're sailing on a ship that's bound to sink
Back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
Why'd I go and shake her Daddy's hand
I should've never seen her hometown
I should've never been that man
Who made a promise he knew he couldn't keep
I hate how I let her waste so much time on me
Back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
To break hers
Time does lots of damage
Way more damage than you think
Girl, I'm sorry that I built our ship to sink
Cause back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart
I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
All wrapped up in my jacket
She was happy
In that moment I could have told her how I felt
But I didn't let the words out
I wasn't honest with myself
Time does lots of damage
Way more damage than you think
When you're sailing on a ship that's bound to sink
Back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
Why'd I go and shake her Daddy's hand
I should've never seen her hometown
I should've never been that man
Who made a promise he knew he couldn't keep
I hate how I let her waste so much time on me
Back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
To break hers
Time does lots of damage
Way more damage than you think
Girl, I'm sorry that I built our ship to sink
Cause back then I knew it wasn't love
Kept hoping that it was
And she just kept on falling
Back then I should've set her free
Cause I knew I'd never be
What she really wanted
Back then at the start, oh I wish I'd had the heart
I wish I'd had the heart to break hers
