The Strand – Bookmark lyrics

I've been listening to gardens in the spring
Forest whispers of fallen hope
I'm the delicate type
I look away
I trust bonds that we sealed and broke
Words that tell us of love and mystery
What are stories when books are closed?
I remember the clash of faith
When we stood in place and we let it grow
Moments passing like atoms crashing
So, why the hell did I let it go?
And I swear now
I think I'll never know
If the love I had was real or grown
Bookmark on the shelf you've fallen again

And no one pretends because the story is done
You read it all again and you let yourself in
But you know that it ends
And now the story is done

I'm the intricate type
I complicate
Can't erase what I've carved in stone
I remember the clash of faith
When we stood in place and we let it grow
Moments passing like atoms crashing
So, why the hell did I let it go?
Bookmark on the shelf you've fallen again
