I wanted to be saved I craved a connection, a love I could trust Blinded by obsession twisted to tension Was love meant to be lust? Begging you to stay was a chase with trip wires How a match that's burnt out can't start fires fingerprints singed from the tries does numbness inspire? Smoke was a haze that surrounds you Consumed in the fumes It allures you If you don't look down the ground, betrays you Love was a maze A rainy day left me ashes the wind icy, circling past us I was wrong all my life On love and on loss I never knew loss until I met you Losing means nothing without love And our love meant nothing without loss Love is a street lined with oak trees Branches like hands holding leaves Cradling flowers in spring Love is a street, it goes two ways Stretches horizon to horizon Travels East to West and sunrise to sunset

2 way street
I wanted to be saved I craved a connection, a love I could trust Blinded by obsession twisted to tension Was love meant to be lust? Begging you to stay was a chase with trip wires How a match that's burnt out can't start fires fingerprints singed from the tries does numbness inspire? Smoke was a haze that surrounds you Consumed in the fumes It allures you If you don't look down the ground, betrays you Love was a maze A rainy day left me ashes the wind icy, circling past us I was wrong all my life On love and on loss I never knew loss until I met you Losing means nothing without love And our love meant nothing without loss Love is a street lined with oak trees Branches like hands holding leaves Cradling flowers in spring Love is a street, it goes two ways Stretches horizon to horizon Travels East to West and sunrise to sunset
