C# F#
well I wrote your name and burned it,
C# G#
to see the color of the flame,
D#m F#
and it burned out the whole spectrum,
C# A#m
as if you were everything,
D#m F#
mine just burned gold, a normal flame,
C# A#m C# F# C# G#
I am, not anything, and all that I remember is the feeling of waking up,
D#m F# C# A#m
when we were kids, you were the sun to which my eyes would not adjust,
D#m F# C#
when we were kids, i was a fountain, you could never drink enough,
C# F# C# G#
then came all the boys who swept you up, playing careless with your heart
D#m F# C# A#m
and every night there was a new girl, sitting beside me in my car,
D#m F# C# F#
something dies when you grow older, but you do the best you can,
D#m F# C#
I am glad, I am glad, you found a good man
