lyrics

I did everything I could
To try and stay you know
But when a broken thing is broken, it's broken
All the ways we broke
You're the only boy I've ever loved
With all my soul
But I had to go

And I left as you were sleeping
I didn't even say goodbye
Then I sat until almost the evening
By the Avon Riverside
I threw that dream catcher you gave me
Into the waters and I cried
And my head's still full of flowers
But they've withered with
Your lies

I took that bus to Manchester
All alone
'Cause when a broken thing is broken, it's broken
All the ways we broke
You're the only boy I've ever known
With all my soul
But I had to go

And I left as you were sleeping
I didn't even say goodbye
Then I sat until almost the evening
By the Avon Riverside
I threw that dream catcher you gave me
Into the waters and I cried
And my head's still full of flowers
But they've withered with
Your lies

Some nights I lay awake 'til morning light comes
Creeping in
But I can't say a word
For fear I'll fall again
Singing 'I'll see you somewhere before the end'
But until then
I write letters I'll never send

And I left as you were sleeping
I didn't even say goodbye
Then I sat until almost the evening
By the Avon Riverside
I threw that dream catcher you gave me
Into the waters and I cried
And my head's still full of flowers
But they've all gone
And died.
