Love Lost

They took an x-ray of my brain
It only lit up when they said your name
Sat in this grave for a whole year
I only looked around when I felt you near
Doctor, doctor help me now
I'm sick on the past
Therapists and psychics both agree
That I'm unmatched
Doctor, doctor help me now
I'm sick on the fear
Fear of what would happen baby
If you were right here Cause
I'd never cry in front of you
If it was the last thing I could do
Cause then you'd find out that
I have emotions that I just can't bear to spend on you
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to hold you at arms length on a Saturday night again
And it's not that I don't think about it
When I play your favorite song on a long drive home
But then I think about the way that a heart breaks when love's lost
And I'd do anything to keep you around
At any cost
I can't handle your love lost
I can't handle your love lost
I'd never throw away a key to a door before
I knew where it would lead
I didn't know I loved you then
So is it my fault now when I text you from his bed
Doctor, doctor help me now
I'm sick with myself
Sick of feeling like dried flowers in an old hotel
Doctor, doctor help me now
I'm sick on the fear
Fear of what would happen baby
If you were right here cause
I'd never cry in front of you
If it was the last thing I could do
Cause then you'd find out that
I have emotions that I just can't bear to spend on you
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to hold you at arms length on a Saturday night again
And it's not that I don't think about it
When I play your favorite song on a long drive home
But then I think about the way that a heart breaks when love's lost
And I'd do anything to keep you around
At any cost
I can't handle your love lost
I can't handle your love lost
I still remember that look in your eyes
When I asked you to stay in the middle of the night
I broke down all my walls for a minute or two
But I still can't admit that it's you
You didn't hear it from me
But I was scared and you were there
And now that night's a dog-eared page
That I still read when I need air
But I can't handle your love lost
I can't handle your love lost
