She puts her pen to paper Lines across their hearts You did it all to erase her You left her standing in the dark This time she’s praying for silence Hoping that you would understand She’s just building these roadworks So it’s clearer when it’ll end You can’t still own what you let go What don’t you understand? Tough luck I said I’d be here in a month But you waited too Only coming back ‘round 'cause you heard I was with someone new And I was waiting here to you came back My heart was bleeding black It’s tough love that I’m giving you It’s tough luck on you He asked a question and she answers He made a crossword spelling guilt Empty boxes filled with chances But you just can’t leave a rose to wilt You can’t still own what you let go What don’t you understand? Tough luck I said I’d be here in a month But you waited too Only coming back ‘round 'cause you heard I was with someone new And I was waiting here to you came back My heart was bleeding black It’s tough love that I’m giving you, Yeah, it’s tough luck on you Tough luck I said I’d be here in a month But you waited too Only coming back ‘round 'cause you heard I was with someone new And I was waiting here to you came back My heart was bleeding black It’s tough love that I’m giving you It’s tough luck on you
