Lyrics

I guess that our love was fading
She spent two years anticipating
The day when she’d walk out the door
It wasn’t long after I came home from the war
To a room built for two
I guess that she thought I was changing
We’d spent three years rearranging
The shoebox existence we shared
We were happy and without a care
In a room built for two
Seasons pass
Through the window as the war carries on
But life still moves
Through the city streets while I’m gone
I guess she grew tired of waiting
We spent one year slowly disintegrating
And I still love her more than anything I own
But it’s hard to be here all alone
In a room built for two
Seasons pass
Through the window as the war carries on
Home at last
With a phantom pain in my arm
Staring at a Polaroid instant
Eight months of letters but I guess that I missed it
But I’m starting to see how she felt
On stool with my neck in my belt
In our room built for two
