lyrics

You were the first true love I ever had and though you weren’t my last
I never thought I’d come to see you pass
But now your life line’s etched straight down your neck and it’s stretching ever slow
As the fracture grows, your time will come to a close

(chorus)
But until then we’ll do your favorite things
We’ll sing your favorite songs
Cause when you love someone you can’t love long
You better love them strong

Well I’m sorry for the times I made you spend the night in the car
I should’ve carried you up the stairs when we’d come home from the bar
You always know just what to say to comfort my heartaches
But whose gonna be there when the fault line breaks?

(chorus)

We should’ve gone to Nashville baby, but instead we played it safe
And then I left you for a while in a storage space
Well I hope you can forgive me for the time spent in your case
And I hope you don’t feel like your life was a waste

(bridge)
Well now, my terminal guitar, we never got too far
But on broken strings and angel’s wings
We’re gonna hold out for tomorrow
