Written by J. Fournier

lyrics

Somebody broke your bones. I found you in a hospital.
I thought I could bring you back to life, but they tore you all apart.
You built a wall around your heart and won't let anyone inside.

You kissed my hand with a mouth full of sand,
and left me standing there, sad.
You tasted my tongue with a mouth full of blood,
and left me standing there stunned.
You sent me running from love.

I gave it my best shot, I'm always aiming for the stars...
... but God hung you up too high.
You sit just out of reach and stare down at me, like a tease.
This operation isn't right.

You kissed my hand with a mouth full of sand,
and left me standing there, sad.
You tasted my tongue with a mouth full of blood,
and left me standing there stunned.
You sent me running from love.
