Matches and Wood

lyrics

Well you say you don't know what you did wrong
Let me show you now
So sit back and listen up and watch me close
You're gonna learn some how
See this heart right here does not fix itself
So go on get up and go
The distance and time will fade the memories
Til I'm the one that you used to know

The distance and time will fade the memories
Til I'm the one that you used to know

Well I sit alone on the shore
As time slips down the stream
You say you want to be my friend
Define what friendship used to mean
Don't do that for me
That's not what I need
I need you out, out for good
I need some matches and some wood
So I can burn everything
All my thoughts still lingering
And we can stop singing the songs we keep singing

We can stop, stop singing the songs we keep singing
We can stop, stop singing the songs we keep singing

I don't know why you're not gone by now
Go on and be on your way
I don't care if you leave me here alone
You've got no reason to stay

Well I sit alone on the shore
As time slips down the stream
You say you want to be my friend
Define what friendship used to mean
Don't do that for me
That's not what I need
I need you out, out for good
I need some matches and some wood
So I can burn everything
All my thoughts still lingering
And we can stop singing the songs we keep singing

We can stop, stop singing the songs we keep singing
We can stop, stop singing the songs we keep singing

I don't know why you're not gone by now
Go on and be on your way
I don't care if you leave me here alone
You've got no reason to stay
