I am the reason you fell br Took that large heart of yours br and crushed it beneath my words br br You deserved better br br So, now I'll watch the sun jump into the ocean br knowing br you were the best of my universe br hands down br the greatest br br I tried br a thousand times br to create love from the torn pieces br we left behind br br Yet br Love battles br Throws everything it's got at you br Takes casualties br Doesn't follow order br br I wasn't ready for war back then br just folded up my heart and retreated br lost everything we'd worked for br lost every bit of you br br That's when the earth died in my eyes br That's when nothing else mattered br br I am the reason you fell br Now, you will not trust again br Took that bright Italian smile br and broke it beneath my whim br br You deserved better br br Now, I understand br br In the beginning br when love was as new br there was one that got away br some one that reminds me of my youth br when love was as simple as a hand-written letter br br So, I'll listen to the sound of night come alive br knowing br you were the best of my universe br hands down br the greatestbr br O.S.
