Take a look around when you're going down Cuz you'll never feel so high As when you hid in her arms in the sky and the world slept
And there's no use to say just how much it kills When it still kills all the same Every thought of her name like a hand to an open flame
Chorus She was the heart in your heartbreak She was the miss in your mistake And no matter what you take, you're never going to forget She was the tear in a rainstorm She was the promise that you would've sworn And no matter what you say, it's never gonna come back
An ambulance goes by, and you wonder why It never stops when you want it to It never stops when you need it to take you away
And your friends don't understand that the world could end, And it would feel no worse than this Every thought of the look in her eye Like a cold California sky
Chorus She was the heart in your heartbreak She was the miss in your mistake And no matter what you take, you're never going to forget She was the tear in a rainstorm She was the promise that you would've sworn And no matter what you say, it's never gonna come back
guitar solo
And no matter what you pray, It's never gonna take the pain away And even if she'd stay you know it's wrong And no matter what you pray, it's never gonna take the pain away Cuz even if she'd stay, you know she's gone
