When we first met
I wanted to forget another
And now I regret
Letting you be more than my lover
I said not yet
I wasn't ready then to choose
But you pulled a loving ruse
And there was no use in fighting when we knew in love this thing we'd lose
So I will count these losses
Up to the costs that we have paid
With warm embraces as we lay
I will count these losses
Up to the damage that we took
When we writing our sad book yeah
Said I remember how you looked baby
It was the number one on new York times I swear
They lined up to read about our love affair
There was sadness in your eyes
And I now realize
How much it mirrored mine
Seems love really is unkind
Maybe we could just rewind
Yeah, go back in time
When it was just you and I
But I
Just count these losses
Up to the costs that we have paid
All those lovely nights we laid
We just count these losses
Up to the damage that we took
Through the pages of our book
Yeh
Said I really remember how you looked baby
All through the pages of our book we lay
It was losing game and yet we chose to play
I can't forget that broken look you sent my way
But if you're asking, yes, I would sign up again
And when my memory fades your face it will remain
And a thousand lifetimes
I will feel the same
