Lyrics
VERSE At ten fifty-three on a Saturday night I sat aboard a train Reading The History of Love in an empty car Knowing I'd never be the same. VERSE At ten fifty-seven I thought back to the heaven That was when I was with her, And I listened to my mind where her voice played for a time Until I couldn't make out the words. CHORUS We were lovers for a year, But I loved her long before. She knew every bit of me. I knew every bit of her, And every day I loved her more. VERSE At eleven thirteen I smiled at the thought That we were still on good terms After the cheating and the lying and the hurting and the crying. It was a lesson that we learned. VERSE At eleven eighteen I wrote the lesson on a page: That love is stronger than will, And the faint attempts at hate were just a way to mediate The hole we thought we had to fill. CHORUS We were lovers for a year, But I loved her long before. She knew every bit of me. I knew every bit of her, And every day I loved her more. VERSE At eleven twenty-five with just one stop till I arrived Back on campus for the night I knew our love would still be strong until the both of us were gone, Cause we had given up the fight. CHORUS We were lovers for a year, But I loved her long before. She knew every bit of me. I knew every bit of her, And every day I loved her more. Still every day I love her more.
