Jonathan Coulton — When You Go lyrics

Lyrics

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 Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go 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 okay
That doesn’t mean I’m ready
Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go When you go When you go When you go Some things you always remember, some things you 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 left is yours now
Fold my heart up small
Or break it into pieces
Find somewhere and keep it there
Take it when you go
