Текст Spanish Love Songs – Vermont

You told me happiness is just a moment
From the porch of your Victorian apartment
We sat outside
The air was broken and summer was barging in

«Because I’m gonna leave you the first chance I get
I’m a black hole, I’m empty and dead
You can carve your name in stone
But it’s just not permanent.»

But you told me you think you loved me
When you collapsed on the floor of your room
After you told me to leave
In that moment
I realized I was sure I loved you too

So, now I’m always putting out fires with my bare hands
Until two black stumps are all that remain
I don’t think my feeble heart’s enough
To blanket these growing flames
You can drop me at the hospital
I’ll OD on morphine and dream about you
As my heart seizes one more time before you go

Then I’ll probably wake up alone and be alone forever
With an itch on my back that I cannot scratch
In the shape of your heart
Forever

Everybody leaves
Everybody leaves eventually
Everybody breaks

Now it all plays out and the way you call me «babe»
Dies with every other nickname
I have so many nicknames I can’t keep track anymore
I’ll bury them in bourbon and half-smoked cigarettes
As we come to an end
Or to an understanding I don’t want to understand

Because everybody leaves
Everybody leaves eventually
Everybody breaks
Bends too late
And no one is happy
You’ll never be happy this time
When it’s my heart on the line
«If I can’t love you, why would you ever love me back?
I can’t love you, why would you ever love me back?
Dylan I don’t know how to love you anymore
So please don’t love me back.»
