Loving can hurt

Loving can hurt sometimes

But it's the only thing that I know

When it gets hard

You know it can get hard sometimes

It is the only thing that makes us feel alive



We keep this love in a photograph

We make these memories for ourselves

Where our eyes are never closing

Hearts are never broken

And time's forever frozen, still



So you can keep me

Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holding me close until our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

Wait for me to come home



Loving can heal

Loving can mend your soul

And it's the only thing that I know, know

I swear it will get easier

Remember that with every piece of ya

And it's the only thing we take with us when we die



We keep this love in this photograph

We make these memories for ourselves

Where our eyes are never closing

Our hearts were never broken

And time's forever frozen, still



So you can keep me

inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holding me close until our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me

That's okay baby, there 'll be worse things

Inside these pages you just hold me

I won't ever let you go



Wait for me to come home (x4)



Oh, you can keep me

Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen

Next to your heartbeat where I should be

Keep it deep within your soul



And if you hurt me

Oh, that's okay baby, only words bleed's

Inside these pages you just hold me

I won't ever let you go



When I'm away,

I will remember how you kissed me

Under the lamppost back on sixth street

Hearing you whisper through the phone

Wait for me to come home
