Stick Season (Her Version)

I know I promised you that we were worth more than the miles combined But that was way before we said some things that made me realize That maybe we were just two lovers way ahead of both our times I couldn't see your exit through the tears that filled my eyes And I went straight to my grandmother's and she asked me what was up I told her "I just broke the only heart I've truly ever loved" And now I'm terrified of stormy nights 'cause I see you when it floods And I can't face my problems so I'm living on the run And oh, I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks And I thank your mom for everything she ever did And no, it's not your fault, oh, how I wish it could be different If I returned your calls or put my keys in the ignition Then we'll be right back where we were in June But the summers passed like the seasons do We weren't built to last, we were meant to lose And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do So I thought that if I piled something right on all my wrongs That I could cancel out the heartache I inherited from mom And I am no longer happy 'cause I miss you now you're gone I still can't face my problems, so I'm living on the run And oh, I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks And I thank your mom for everything she ever did And no, it's not your fault, oh, how I wish it could be different If I returned your calls or put my keys in the ignition Then we'll be right back where we were in June But the summers passed like the seasons do We weren't built to last, we were meant to lose And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do Oh, that'll have to do My other half was you I guess what they say is true What you love you lose Cause I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks And I thank your mom for everything she ever did And no, it's not your fault, oh, how I wish it could be different If I returned your calls or put my keys in the ignition Then we'll be right back where we were in June But the summers passed like the seasons do We weren't built to last, we were meant to lose And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do Have to do
