We went down with the flames of love that flies like a cannonball
You took me higher when all that was left to do was fall
Purple hearts love, you roll your eyes
Sent with a kiss 'til you awkwardly sigh
I wish I could build a time machine
Lying next to you just a little longer
Ooh, around and around tears come falling down
I kept your photo in my dresser drawer
Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
Re-read a letter that you wrote before
You are no longer around and the tears come falling down
Felt like a punch in the gut
It's tough when it catches you off guard
A word like "forever" is a scary thought
That's why it hurts so hard
I pulled my car into a parking lot
I turn the key and left the headlights on
Listened to the windshield wipers going back and forth
But I can't help it if I get distracted
See, my mind wanders to a re-enacted
Living in a different universe 'til I opened up the door
Ooh, around and around tears come falling down
I kept your photo in my dresser drawer (Ooh)
Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
Re-read a letter that you wrote before
You are no longer around
Tears come falling down
It only lasted for a second in time
These are the memories that I've memorized
I can see you, I can see you when I open my eyes
You're around and the tears come falling down
Falling down
Falling down (Tears come falling down)
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm falling)
Lying next to you
Tears come falling down
Falling down (Tears come falling down)
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm falling)
Lying next to you
Tears come falling down just a little longer
I kept your photo in my dresser drawer (Ooh)
Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
Re-read a letter that you wrote before
You are no longer around
Tears come falling down
It only lasted for a second in time
These are the memories that I've memorized
I can see you, I can see you when I open my eyes
You're around and the tears come falling down
