I slowly started chipping away at this block of stone
|
in an attempt to fashion a way to regain your attention.
|
why won't you hear me out?
|
I started out with some paper and pen and my apologies.
|
but every time I try to write to you,
|
I just can never find the words to explain.
|
|
so I'll build a monument to honor you,
|
out of the ruins of the love I knew.
|
I'll turn your favorite memories into a sight for all to see,
|
because I know when you see it, you'll come back to me.
|
|
picked me up the phone and I started to dial your line from memory.
|
too proud to ever let you pickup.
|
close to the point where I should give up.
|
you'll never call me back.
|
so now I'm doing something tangible - I'm working with my hands.
|
because I can never seem to manage to say I'm sorry in a language you can comprehend.
|
|
so I'll build a monument to honor you,
|
out of the ruins of the love I knew.
|
I'll turn your favorite memories into a sight for all to see,
|
because I know when you see it, you'll come back to me.
|
|
I'll put it right outside your window
|
so it's impossible to ignore.
|
will that be good enough for you? (for you)
|
and even if you pulled your shades down,
|
and burn the statue to the ground,
|
it'll be enough to bring your warmth back to me.
|
|
a monument to honor you,
|
out of the ruins of the love I knew.
|
I'll turn your favorite memories into a sight for all to see,
|
because I know when you see it, you'll come back to me.
|

|
come back to me.
