Packed up the books in boxes
Broken love songs for a girl from a boy
And though the memories aren't truly forgotten
They fade like a burning polaroid
Threw out the dozen roses
Fallen soldiers from a love that was lost
Moved out from your apartment
With all the memories that I wished I forgot
Like when I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried and I kissed her goodbye but today
I'm standing alone in the rain
Threw out your favourite records
Cause every song that's played reminds me of you
And I heard you're doing better
You give your love to somebody new
I'm to blame no doubt about it
I hope he brings you all the joy I never did
And though I don't deserve this
Please recall not who I was but what I did
Like when I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried and I kissed her goodbye but today
I'm standing alone in the rain
When I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried but the hardest goodbye is the one where he's taking my place
But...
I hope he walks you home in the pouring rain
And when you're sheltered underneath the bridge
He's gonna lean in and ask if you feel the same
You'll pull him close and then whisper in his ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
You'll laugh and you'll cry and you'll kiss him goodbye don't mind me
I'm just standing alone in the rain
