Too much love will kill you Yes, too much love will kill you I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be Too many bitter tears are raining down on me I'm far away from home And I've been facing this alone For much too long Oh, I feel like no-one ever

So far from who I was From who I love From who I want to be So far from all our dreams From all it means From you here next to me So far from seeing home I stand out here alone Am I asking for too much?

You're breaking your own heart Taking it too far down the lonely road You say you just want love But when it's close enough you just let it go The very thing you've been the most afraid of You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart.

And I'm lost again Too far from you I'm lost again Some nights I don't sleep at all I lie awake with my eyes closed Some days I'm inside a cloud So tired I just float around I thought time would fade your face

Sometimes I feel like a star, sometimes I feel like a (I'm rollin') Saying that we'll run away I hope the sunset will stay We've traveled too far from home I'm rollin' But your phone doesn't ring and you're gone all the time Well I guess you're somewhere

I'm standing in the shadow of the hill Feel the fear everywhere Hope it don't get me killed I'm standing in the shadow walking blind I've been unfair & unkind Turned away from your suffering far too many times Now I'm standing in the shadow walking blind

When I'm much too far away And now I wish I'd stayed 'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired I'm missing you again oh no A lonely road, crossed another cold state line Miles away from those I love purpose undefined We all need that person who can be true to you

Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt I am afraid I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me I will not make The same mistakes that you did I will not let myself

Might take too long That you are all you're meant to be When the one from my dream Is sitting right next to me And I don't know what to do Oh alter ego Said the voice from afar "Don't you know it doesn't Have to be so hard Waiting for Everyone else

Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt I am afraid I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me I will not make The same mistakes that you did I will not let myself
