We had it all, we were young lovers
We were full of trust and faith
And we were dead set on making it last forever
Forever and a day
I recall it was fall last year when it started to die
We're standing still as the temperature kills
The summer's thrills that were keeping it alive
The days got colder, so I held you closer
In an effort to save us from time
Almost like a wind came and ruined a spark
And left us in the dark
But hey, I could've told you that I loved you and stayed
Around to kindle the fire, but I was late
On my return and now you've lost all faith
And I am the liar, I'm no longer what you require
I still feel you at night
Turning in the sheets when I turn out the light
That's how it goes, the ghost of your first love
Won't ever leave you 'til the day that you die
I won't ever live down leaving her behind
Even if the choice was the right one
It was a good thing staring me right in the face
But I turned and ran away
Hey, I could've told you that I loved you and stayed
Around to kindle the fire, but I was late
On my return and now you've lost all faith
And I am the liar, I'm no longer what you require
Well, back then the days were so much faster
We were young, stubborn, and in love with disaster
You know you can't go back even if you try
You better just forget her, won't you close the door on me?
'Cause it'll never be the same
It'll never be the way it was before
Well, hey, I could've told you that I loved you and stayed
Around to kindle the fire, but I was late
On my return and so you've lost all faith
And I am the liar
Oh, hey, I would've told you that I loved you and stayed
Around to kindle the fire, but I was late
On my return and now you've lost all faith
In the dying light, I'm no longer what you require
I'm no longer what you require
No longer
