I'm reading this book that was recommended to me and this song comes to mind...
The Postal Service -
'Nothing Better'

Would someone please call a surgeon
who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
that you're deserting
for better company

I can't accept that it's over
and I will block the door like a goalie tending the net
in the third quarter
of a tied game rivalry

So just say how to make it right
and I swear i'll do my best to comply
Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

I feel I must interject here
you're getting carried away
feeling sorry for yourself
with these revisions and gaps in history
So let me help you remember
i've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear
i've prepared a lecture on why I have to leave
So please back away and let me go

I can't my darling
I love you so oh oh
tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together.

Don't you feed me lies
about some idealistic future
your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

I know that I have made mistakes and I swear i'll never wrong you again

You've got a lure I can't deny but you've had your chance
so say goodbye
say goodbye
