You can have my heart
You can break and bend it as you will
But I'll need something in return
I'll need the way your eyes sparkle in the light
And the way you run your hands through your hair when we fight
If you could leave your fingers intertwined with mine
Well, that would be more than fine

You can keep my dreams,
Throw them away  with us
But I want something too
I want the way you feel, flush against skin
And the way you say my name, over and over again
If you could give me your smile upon my lips
Maybe I can live with this

And you can move on
And I'll sit surrounded by the pieces you left me
Spending my time thinking about what should be
And you will find your second and third someone new
But I'll be happy here if you leave me the memories of you
