She says I don't understand what it means to be alone
I guess that's been true since the day I met her
She sat out in the storm on her own
And as I watched her I knew she was wrong

She always said the wind reminded her of home
Until I asked her to stay
I knew she was a rebel but how could I have know
That she would turn away
That she would run away

Nothing hurts more
Than standing at the shore
Watching a horizon
As the sky opens
Wishing you weren't on the other side
And I'm numb
Nothing hurts more than love

And she's off on another adventure
Somewhere between the lines
And I'm here trying to find where we were
somewhere between the lies

She's sitting at home in silence
And I'm walking in the rain
It's more than the distance
I guess somethings do change

Nothing hurts more
Than standing at the shore
Watching a horizon
As the sky breaks opens
Wishing you were still on my side
And I'm numb
Nothing hurts more than love

And I'm sitting out in the cold on my own
I never felt this way before I met her
I understand what it means to be alone
And I guess I will forever

Nothing hurts any more
I'm standing at the shore
Watching a horizon
And the sky's broken
Wishing you weren't on the other side
And I'm numb
Nothing hurts more than love
