I told you then that I would come But I'm still stuck at the border You give your heart to everyone But you're only following orders The lights are on - there's no one home I'm wilting like a flower And I never thought I'd be alone At such an awful hour Across the land the lover's curse Has blessed all of these people Here's the hand and here's the church But there's no one in the steeple Beneath the bed I wrote your name And tried to find our purpose But the ones who said they'd share the blame They were only here to hurt us And I know you tried and I know you'll say That none of this is surprising You've still got all you gave away But I lost what I was hiding I only wish I'd been around To cherish every minute But I searched for years and all I found Your heart was never in it At all
