From the recording Meanwhile I Love You

Lyrics

I knew what I was the day that your face fell heavy on the floor.
So I fell down upon my sword. And fell upon some words.
When you told me that I brought you shame, it hit me like a hurricane.
It hit me just like needed rain. It hit me where it hurts.


Heaven and hell are two sides of the same damn coin. Give to each other their names.
Loving and hate are two sides that I can’t avoid. One is what the other ain’t.
But I loved you all the same.

When I loved you and shut my mouth. I should have said it right out loud.
I should’ve said you me proud. To say the very least.
I was sure a piece of work that night. And sure as day you shone a light.
That’s when I knew for sure who I will never want to be.
Heaven and hell are two sides of the same damn coin. Give to each other their names.
Loving and hate are two sides that I can’t avoid. One is what the other ain’t.
But I loved you all the same.



And I know the love that came by the contrast to the pain.
And I know the hurt I caused by the love almost lost.

When I think of what I did before, it only makes me want you more.
You and only you. It’s your honesty I want.
Every bitter word I ever said will make me hold you close in bed.
And we’ll know all that lies ahead by what is said and done.

Heaven and hell are two sides of the same damn coin. Give to each other their names.
Loving and hate are two sides that I can’t avoid. One is what the other ain’t.
But I loved you all the same.
