Nina Valentine - Too Late to Mend Lyrics

We were laughing in that café down the street
You held my hand but I felt incomplete
My friends whispered You're better off alone
And I let their words carve deep into my bones
I pushed you away kept you at arm's length
Too scared to show you my love's full strength
I was blinded by the crowd by what they thought
Now I'm standing here with a heart I never fought
And now I'm drowning in what's gone
Holding pieces I can't put back
The silence cuts me deeper than words
I watched you fade as I turned my back
Holding pieces as I turned my back
We used to dance beneath the midnight sky
But I let my fears make our love run dry
They told me you weren't enough for me
And I believed it too blind to see
I laughed when they laughed pretended I didn't care
But when you needed me I was never there
I wore the mask of someone I couldn't be
While losing the one who truly set me free
And now I'm drowning in what's gone
Holding pieces I can't put back
The silence cuts me deeper than words
I watched you fade as I turned my back
Holding pieces as I turned my back
