WHEN YOU GO
words and music: Jonathan Coulton
VERSE 1:
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
CHORUS:
Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
VERSE 2:
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 OK
That doesn’t mean I’m ready
REPEAT CHORUS
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
REPEAT CHORUS
