Song Lyrics

I've got a little love left, need to measure it now
Back in the waste of wild youth I used to spread it around
But now my cup has run low
Heartache is draining
For the sake of myself, I see the sun and say rain

You know there's only so much hurt you can take
Although you live and light up, still you know by the ache
Out in the street of love loss, lighting tires to trip you
Make you dig in your heels lest somebody should miss you

And I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not

I want to bury my heart hundred feet in the snow
And when the winter bleeds out maybe something'll grow
I need another new start, an innocent face
A little jug of good luck when I need to erase you

Once I had someone who held me close in the night
Said everything I touched I turned to carnival lights
I wish I still believed
It's such a beautiful lie

But I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not

Once I had someone who held me close in the night
Said everything I touched I turned to carnival lights
Some day I may believe in such a beautiful lie again

And that's all right
You learn to lose, to fight
You choose your vital lies, and stumble on
And some dark morning, someone, without warning
May laugh on some street corner and stop the rain

I've got a little love left, need to measure it now
Back in the waste of wild youth I used to spread it around
But now my cup has run low
Heartache is draining
For the sake of myself, I see the sun and say rain

You know there's only so much hurt you can take
Although you live and light up, still you know by the ache
Out in the street of love: loss, lighting tires to trip you
Make you dig in your heels lest somebody should miss you

And I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not gonna miss you
No, I'm not
