lyrics

Standing on your own wondering whatever to do. You don’t believe it happens, then it happens to you. Thinking things were better before a list of crimes. It’s cheap nostalgia and fantasies of perfect times ‘cuz true love always dies. When they told her Johnny wouldn’t come back from war and she kept all his letters in a bureau drawer. One day, she took them out and through herself to the floor. She wasn’t waiting for anything, anymore ‘cuz true love always dies. True love always dies. There’s something in my heart that you will never see. I keep it in a box to have it buried with me and the only sign when that day comes will be a black sail rising by the setting sun ‘cuz true love always dies.
