LYRICS
I love love

I love being in love

I don’t care what it does to me

Take these tattered boxes

that used to hold your clothes

Break them down
Build them back up with your bones

All you did was construct a mess

You’re good to me when only flesh
You’re a memory with nothing to show

When we would take trips

We swore we'd never take pictures

Pictures only prove what you can’t convince
Now I wish those photographs
could convince you that what we had
Would only turn out a negative
Well, Well, Well

If fingertips are relationships

Then I could barely carry your weight

If fingers are mistakes

Don’t use this one to point the blame
Just sing

Sing

I love love

I love being in love
I don’t care what it does to me

These pills are fine to pass the time

'til I find my new drug
Then
We'll take our chances
We'll last a month

We'll never speak again

How I love being in love
And don’t pick up that line

You’re dressed to have a good time

You don’t need him, you need to be seen
So someone else can treat you wrong
So you my love can sing this song

I love love

I love being in love

I don’t care what it does to me
These pills are fine to pass the time

‘til I find my new drug
Then
They’ll take advantage

I’ll claim that’s what I want

To be the new statistic
How I love
How I love

How I love being in love

Take these tattered boxes

That used to hold your clothes
Break them down

Build them back up with your bones
All you did was construct a mess

You’re dead to me if love is death
You’re a memory with nothing to show
Well, Well, Well
If fingertips are relationships
Then maybe I could use a break
She smiles
She points at me

She says:
"Baby I love how you sing
So just sing

Sing"
I love love

I love being in love

I don’t care what it does to me
These pills are fine to pass the time
‘til I find my new drug
Then
We'll take our chances

We'll rise above
We'll last until the end

How I love

How I love
How I love being in love
