You Let Your Heart Go Too Fast

Yeah, havin' been by that old bank tower
I'm inclined to wonder why you feel so strong?
You can't have really seen the hour
If you think she's trying to do you wrong
I see you got that lump in your throat
I hear you mumblin', that's all she wrote
Love is in the next room drinkin' antidoteYou ought to know that girl by now
She'll never settle down anyhow
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fastBroken glass turns back to flint and sand
I only cease to love as love demands
As you know it takes a while to clap those
Fragments from your idle hands
Couple months could dry a sea of tears
Leave only salt beneath our dried up piers
We won't believe we cared, I swear, in a couple yearsYou ought to know that girl by now
She'll never settle down anyhow
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fastIf time heals all wounds, don't you know that
Time also deals them?
The days go by, and now everybody feels them
We struggle with our fates but our action only seals themThey say that murder ain't the fault of the weapon
I'm smokin' sad to be the gun
I want to blow you all away but I don't want to put
No bullets into anyoneI see the feathers that infringe your heart
I see the blood ooze from around the dart
Cupid spites the sense that keeps two
Mismatched souls apartYou ought to know that girl by now
She'll never settle down anyhow
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fastYou ought to know that girl by now
She'll never settle down anyhow
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fastYou let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fast
You let your heart go too fast
