Taking care of every detail, but you never see
All the late nights spent in silence
Just you and me, and you're right
The dishes didn't do themselves while I was trying
To hold on to a love we were slowly defying
So here we are, standing on the edge
But by the truth in our eyes, we can't deny
You said I lost the spark, that my love had faded
I told you I've been here trying, but it feels so one-sided
You're right, the dishes didn't do themselves while I was trying
To balance us, to save us from breaking beyond dying
So here we are, standing on the edge
But by the truth in our eyes, we can't deny
I've laid nights around the kitchen, and you're constantly crying
Well you're right, the dishes didn't do themselves while I was trying
To keep this love from falling apart, like those glasses on the shelf
As far as I'm concerned, I'll just save my heart for someone else
And if you think I've changed, you better hold your breath
Cause taking me for granted was the cause of all this mess
You're right, the dishes didn't do themselves
While I was busy mending all the cracks you wouldn't help
I tried to keep us standing, but now it's plain to see
The weight of all those pieces left no space for you and me
So if you think it's over, it's cause your love was gone
You took my heart for granted, now it's time that I move on
You're right, the dishes didn't do themselves
While I was busy mending all the cracks you wouldn't help
I tried to keep us standing, but now it's plain to see
The weight of all those pieces left no space for you and me
So if you think it's over, it's cause your love was gone
You took my heart for granted, now it's time that I move on
