Sara Bareilles - Splintering lyrics

[Sara Bareilles - Splintering lyrics]

We found a tender love it
Blossomed wild and free
Pure proof was in your arms
When you were kissing me
I was an open book, you were an ocean breeze
Rustling through pages I never should
Have let you see
Never should have let you see

Was I so wrong being such an open book?
Trusting so soon
Losing all the tender time it
Took to love you
Just to crawl away with broken wings
And the pieces of my heart still splintering
The pieces of my heart still splintering

Friend’s asking where you are
Say I misunderstood i say he’s gone away
But he’s not gone for good
Speak of romantic plans we’re
Looking forward to
Meanwhile, imagining you end up
With someone new

It’s surely over now, but how I ache inside
This ocean full of tears that
I’m about to cry
You’re sorry for this pain, yeah
That’s not what you meant
I’m sorry too but my feelings more permanent
