It's the losing of love that makes us who we are
Love is something we wait for... We imagine our first kiss, our first sex, our first I Love You. We never imagine our first heartbreak. Maybe because its too painful to even imagine. But in a way the pain of love is what truly changes us.

"What if we just acknowledge that we have a screwed-up relationship and we stick it out anyway, we accept that we fight a lot and we hardly have sex anymore, but we don't wanna live without each other? And that way we can live our lives together... Miserable, but happy not to be apart”
Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn’t like it when I wore high heels, but I do
Turned the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn’t get this song but I do, I do
Walked in expecting you’d be late
But you got here early
And you stand and wait
And I walk to you
You pulled my chair out and helped me
And you don’t know how nice that is
But I do
And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it’s strange that you think I’m funny ‘cause he never did
I’ve been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
You said you never met one girl
Who has as many James Taylor records as you
But I do
We tell stories and you don’t know why I’m coming off a little shy
But I do
But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it’s strange that you think I’m funny ‘cause he never did
I’ve been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
And we walk down the block to my car
And I almost brought him up
But you start to talk about the movies
That your family watches every single Christmas
And I want to talk about that
For the first time, what’s past is past
‘Cause you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it’s strange that you think I’m funny ‘cause he never did
I’ve been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
Then on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
Then on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again

Now and then I think of when we were together; like when you said you felt so happy you could die…
I told myself that you were right for me, but felt so lonely in your company but that was love and it's an ache I still remember…
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness, like resignation to the end, always the end… So when we found that we could not make sense
well, you said that we would still be friends but I'll admit that I was glad that it was over.
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over but had me believing it was always something that I'd done… But I don't wanna live that way; reading into every word you say
