 There's thieves among  us,  painting the walls
 With all kinds of lies,  the lies I  never told at all
 What's in my pocket,  you never knew
 You didn't know  me well so well  as I knew you
And  I know  and you  know to
 A love  like ours  is terrible  news
 But that  won't stop me crying
 No that  won't stop me crying  over you
And  I know  and you  know to
 A love  like ours  is terrible news
 But that  won't stop me crying
 No that  won't stop me crying  over you
 No that  won't stop me crying  over you
 No that  won't stop me crying  over you, you
you...

 Chords used in this song:
 
 
Orpheus  melted the heart  of Persephone,
 but I  never had yours
 I followed  you back to the end  of the path,
 but I never  found the door

 You can bear  it  from the earth  below
 You can work  but you can't  let go
 Oh, oh  but you have to know
Don't  look back  all you'll ever get
 is the dust  from the steps  before
I  don't have to see  you every day,
 but I just  want to know  you're there
 
 
Quietly  took to the dark  of the day
 and the hiss  of the summer night
 The heat  of the breeze was a cell  block wall
 and when I looked  you were out of sight
 And you can work  to save  your love
 You can bear  it  from the earth  below
 You can work  but you can't  let go
 Oh, oh  but you have to know
Don't  look back  all you'll ever get
 is the dust  from the steps  before
I  don't have to see  you every day,
 but I just  want to know  you're there
 
 
 And you can work  to save  your love
 You can bear  it  from the earth  below
 You can work  but you can't  let go

 Remember  last summer when we had  the chance
 To find  each other, start making  romance
 But it didn't  come off because you found  another
 Without one  hand of a clock, what good  is the other?
 And I  can't find no true love, oh baby, it's so  hard
 And I still  think about you every time I'm riding in my  car
 So I went  to the place where everybody  hangs out
 To see  what everybody was talking  about
 And over  in a corner all alone  with you
 Was a boy  from last summer singing songs  to you
 And he  can't sing like I can sing, oh, it's so  hard
 And I still  think about you every time I'm riding in my  car
 When I'm home  alone I can think  of other things  to do
 But when  I'm rolling in forward motion  I think  about only you
 Lyrics:

 But when I'm rolling in forward motion I think about only you
 It's been a year and a day since I talked to you
 I don't know how I made it, but I sure have been blue
 And every time I think about what might have been
 I jump in my car and start riding again

 I like to learn things slow
 I like learning a lot
 I like to get it all again and in the end
 You know you get what you got
 I like to mean what I say
 But it don't always come through
 Cause if I say it all again, again, again
 It doesn't make it more true
 And the world's  like a science
 And I'm  like a secret
 And I  saw you lingering still,  still
I  saw you lingering still

 Don't really care if it hurts
 Cause if I knock it I won't know it
 Then I know that it will only get worse
 He was different at first
 But then he won't understand
 Because he's never gonna know me
 If he doesn't want to just shake my hand

 "Sunlight is lost in your eyes..."
 Chords used in this song:
Looking  for a letter trace  it in the sand
Nothing  was lost on the way

Hours  on the sidewalk staring  at the sun
Everyone  is wasting away  wasting the day
 Jumping the gun
 I know it all  comes full circle
 Yes it all  comes crashing down  on you
Hide  in your heart chase  it til the morning
Sunlight  is lost in your eyes
 You never tried  facing the sting
Walking  all in circles take  it all in stride
Faces  are not what they seem
 I always dream  lost in the tide
 I know it all  comes full circle
 Yes it all  comes crashing down  on you
 I'm gonna make  it make it better
 I'm gonna get  the best and lock  it up and swallow  the key
 I'm gonna make  it make it better
 I'm gonna get  the best and lock  it up and swallow  the key
 Lyrics:
 Looking for a letter trace it in the sand

 Yes it all comes crashing down on you
 Hide in your heart chase it til the morning
 Sunlight is lost in your eyes

 "Why do I always want to keep it to myself?"

Let  you know what love  is like when Im

 Is just like running  a business
 And I'm keeping  up with the games  you play
Every day

Two broken hearts don't beat any less

Lyrics:

Orpheus melted the heart of Persephone,
but I never had yours
I followed you back to the end of the path,
but I never found the door

And you can work to save your love
You can bear it from the earth below
You can work but you can't let go
Oh, oh but you have to know

Don't look back all you'll ever get
is the dust from the steps before
I don't have to see you every day,
but I just want to know you're there

Quietly took to the dark of the day
and the hiss of the summer night
The heat of the breeze was a cell block wall
and when I looked you were out of sight

Re[G]member last summer when we [D/F#]had the chance
To [C]find each other, start [D]making romance
But it [G]didn't come off because you [D/F#]found another
Without [C]one hand of a clock, what [D]good is the other?

And [C]I can't find no true love, oh baby, it's so [G]  ha[Gaug]rd
And I [C]still think about you every time I'm riding in [D]my car

So I [G]went to the place where every[D/F#]body hangs out
To [C]see what everybody was [D]talking about
And [G]over in a corner all a[D/F#]lone with you
Was a [C]boy from last summer singing [D]songs to you

And [C]he can't sing like I can sing, oh, it's so [G]  ha[Gaug]rd
And I [C]still think about you every time I'm riding in [D]my car

When I'm [Am]home alone I can [C]think of other [D]things to [G]do
But [Am]when I'm rolling in [C]forward [D]motion I [Am]think about only [D]you

Lyrics:

Remember last summer when we had the chance
To find each other, start making romance
But it didn't come off because you found another
Without one hand of a clock, what good is the other?

And I can't find no true love, oh baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm riding in my car

So I went to the place where everybody hangs out
To see what everybody was talking about
And over in a corner all alone with you
Was a boy from last summer singing songs to you

And he can't sing like I can sing, oh, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm riding in my car

When I'm home alone I can think of other things to do
But when I'm rolling in forward motion I think about only you

It's been a year and a day since I talked to you
I don't know how I made it, but I sure have been blue
And every time I think about what might have been
I jump in my car and start riding again

It's all just news to me
Don't really care if it hurts
Cause if I knock it I won't know it
Then I know that it will only get worse
He was different at first
But then he won't understand
Because he's never gonna know me
If he doesn't want to just shake my hand

But this is where our friendship ends.
Cause all of the sudden you changed your tune.
You havent been around since way last June.

Sunlight is lost in your eyes
you never tried facing the sting
Walking all in circles, take it all in stride
Faces are not what they seem
I always dream lost in the tide

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best and lock it up and swallow the key

Running away from you
Is just like running a business
And I'm keeping up with the games you play
Every day

I've gotten over it over and over again
I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
