I tried to run but I fell and bruised my knees
The perfect opportunity for you to walk all over me
It's funny but it's sad how I still bleed
Maybe someday you will miss me
And the endless nights of booze and make-believe
You never seemed too sure but it still felt right
But the love we shared belongs to the night
I was just your welcome place to stay
You were just my chance to get away
I'd play this guitar and sing sad songs to you
You'd make every word I said come true
Maybe one day we could just be friends
Save our story and change the way it ends
But knowing you dear I'm sure that's a bit of a fight
Because the love we shared belongs to the night
I was blind but now I can see
You never were a mystery to me
Seems to me you were always in disguise
Expose your heart so I can take back mine
Maybe you'll find someone not like me
Somebody strong enough to set your heart free
I'll be a memory and I guess that's alright
Because the love we shared belongs to the night
