Beginning, verse one
A web of love in which lies demise
Crying as we realize
Passion shouldn’t stretch so many ways
Yes or no?
Standing in the corridor watching you go
So sorry I wasted your time

You and I are the saddest song I’ve ever known
You and I are the saddest song I’ve ever known
I can listen to all the songs on the radio
I can feel every note beneath my fingertips
I can feel every chord come across my lips
And still you and I are the saddest song I’ve ever known

You and I were supposed to leave this town
Our smiles drift from coast to coast
Still
You and I are what I miss the most

You and I are the saddest song I’ve ever known
I can listen to all the songs on the radio
I can feel every note beneath my fingertips
I can feel every chord come across my lips
And still you and I are the saddest song I’ve ever known

Don’t show me you scarred heart
I assure you it hasn’t bled as much as mine
Don’t give me promises you broke
Please don’t give me another verse
Stay away, stay away
I don’t care what you want
Don’t try to save me from the misery that rocks me to sleep

I’m trying to stop murmuring this melody
And find something that matters to me
I’d like to sing a new song
For this new day
I’ve been hiding in the dark
Weaving a string of sound to light the night
