Charlotte
We met up in a cafe in Vienna when the leaves had turned to gold
She was searching for a ring her mother gave her, was the only thing she owned
And I could tell by the sorrow in her eyes it would be the last time
But in that moment the minutes turned to hours turned to years we'd leave behind
We wandered through the market reminiscing on the nights that we had shared
How we clung to one another in the silence that hung heavy in the air
And each time I kissed her softly drinking in the lingering wine upon her lips
Wondering how many lifetimes it would take another lover to exist
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them as a memory
So instead of saying love she just said it'll hurt a long time
She had led me to a place we often went for some temporary warmth
And we talked away the hour taking comfort in the pleasure of the norm
It's a feeling that can only be found in company like this
And the memory of the kindness in her eyes is the hardest thing to miss
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them as a memory
So instead of saying love she just said it'll hurt a long time
When the scent of lilacs or the songs we sang are drifting in the air
I swear I'd believe in heaven if it meant a chance in hell that she were there
Sometimes I think about the cafe in Vienna when the leaves had turned to gold
But now the only thing I cling to are the letters that got lost in the post
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them in your memory
So instead of saying love she just said
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
She was searching for a ring her mother gave her, was the only thing she owned
And I could tell by the sorrow in her eyes it would be the last time
But in that moment the minutes turned to hours turned to years we'd leave behind
We wandered through the market reminiscing on the nights that we had shared
How we clung to one another in the silence that hung heavy in the air
And each time I kissed her softly drinking in the lingering wine upon her lips
Wondering how many lifetimes it would take another lover to exist
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them as a memory
So instead of saying love she just said it'll hurt a long time
She had led me to a place we often went for some temporary warmth
And we talked away the hour taking comfort in the pleasure of the norm
It's a feeling that can only be found in company like this
And the memory of the kindness in her eyes is the hardest thing to miss
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them as a memory
So instead of saying love she just said it'll hurt a long time
When the scent of lilacs or the songs we sang are drifting in the air
I swear I'd believe in heaven if it meant a chance in hell that she were there
Sometimes I think about the cafe in Vienna when the leaves had turned to gold
But now the only thing I cling to are the letters that got lost in the post
She said if she said she loved she'd be lying
When all good things fracture down the line
It's safer to keep them in your memory
So instead of saying love she just said
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
It'll hurt a long time
