Dear Lover (Acoustic Version)

I still see her breathing in the winter
Telling me that my lips taste bitter
From a cigarette that slowly withered
Like a love from two young sinners
I was lost in New York snow
Manhattan ain't a place to grow
These city lights are too damn bright
For us to fight in plain sight

Dear lover won't you find me a home
The one I know has grown so damn cold
I want to leave but I ain't that bold
These memories won't let me go
Dear lover I can't help but think
Loving you would be wrong of me
I don't want to see you get hurt
But you're what's helping me get over her

I can't remember every walk
That we ever took in Central Park
But I can't forget the way we'd dream
About all the things we'd one day be
I know that it's not right of me
To compare you to her memory
But lately I've been going the wrong way
Drinking just to try and ease the pain

Dear lover won't you find me a home
The one I know has grown so damn cold
I want to leave but I ain't that bold
These memories won't let me go
Dear lover I can't help but think
Loving you would be wrong of me
I don't want to see you get hurt
But you're what's helping me get over her

Six one two five
Still see her standing at
Whispering willow drive
Three two one five
Can't get it out my mind

Dear lover won't you find me a home
The one I know has grown so damn cold
I want to leave but I ain't that bold
These memories won't let me go
Dear lover I can't help but think
Loving you would be wrong of me
I don't want to see you get hurt
But you're what's helping me get over her
