When You Go Lyrics
Only a moment ago we had nothing but time
Everything lasted forever and you were all mine
Only a dream I know
Thinking you’d never go
Tearing off pieces of myself
Just for the time it buys me
Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
There in the frame of your face in the cast of your eyes
I saw this coming but still I am caught by surprise
All of this time I knew
That I’d be losing you
That doesn’t mean that it’s okay
That doesn’t mean I’m ready
Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
When you go
When you go
Some things we always remember, some things we forget
No way to make it up now no room for regret
That’s no good for anyone
And so I come undone
Now I am less than what I was
Whatever’s left is yours now
So fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
Everything lasted forever and you were all mine
Only a dream I know
Thinking you’d never go
Tearing off pieces of myself
Just for the time it buys me
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
I saw this coming but still I am caught by surprise
All of this time I knew
That I’d be losing you
That doesn’t mean that it’s okay
That doesn’t mean I’m ready
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
When you go
When you go
No way to make it up now no room for regret
That’s no good for anyone
And so I come undone
Now I am less than what I was
Whatever’s left is yours now
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go

An under-appreciated gem of Coulton's. Great songs like this can be lost in the idea of Thing a Week.
