Falling On November 9th

I've always cared about you, I think I always will
So let me give you some advice, for the next girl to strike you a deal
If she ever cries, will you just kiss her eyes and write down every detail?
But if she's terrified, will you just be a man, and be brave enough to keep her?

But if you're unsure, just let her know, before she makes you the love of her life
And if you decide to leave her, will you just leave her intact?
Don't make her fall like I fell, like I fell, that November 9th

If she begins to trust you, just know it took a long time
Don't you give her reasons to question why you're giving someone else your time
If she's asking why you talked to her all night, just know that she thinks you're worth it
But if she ever stays quiet, and doesn't fight it, just know that she gave up trying
Cause you were unsure, you never let me know, you let me make you the love of my life
Darling, when you left me, you left me covered in scars
So don't make her fall like I fell, that November 9th
If two years pass by and she's still not the one, will you just let her go?
Don't waste her time, there's one hundred guys that wouldn't wait to give her the world

Oh darling you knew, how much I loved you, and you let me cut off my heart to fit you
You took the pieces, knowing you'd leave them, knowing they would never be enough for you
Cause you were always unsure, but I should've known, I was never the love of your life
So darling when you find her, will you use your arms?
and catch her when she falls

Cause I fell all alone, that November
9th
