Elena C. - Since Lyrics

I knew it won't happen but I waited till midnight
Gave back the sweater my suitcase out front
I was prepared to stay had you come that night
Would've sold my ticket for a charlatan

But I guess you were out partying
I must say for a sober man with a first love lost
You couldn't have looked happier
That's cuz I wasn't your first one
No not a love not a love at all
I'm not even a memory now

My lipstick stains the wine glass rim
Instead of his neck his lips instead of him
My lipstick stains the crystal glass
Because of his crystal eyes

Please manipulate and cry to somebody else
You were special to me but I just lack common sense
I'm breathing for a last time kiss
Like you're in front of me I need you in front of me

His sober mind but absent eyes
They say love kills but mine kept me alive
Swallowed some pills but couldn't swallow his pride
First love never dies

I still smell the mint on your rosebud lips
And the piano stands hollow since the day that we kissed
Lost count of the amount of times the seasons changed
And you stayed in the summer
Your shadow still sits on that bench

Wrong timing seconds apart
The silence of music none of it matters to you
Wrong timing seconds apart
The stars knew to keep their distance from you

Wrong timing seconds apart
The violins are useless none of it matters to you
Wrong timing seconds apart
The stars knew to keep their distance from you

Please manipulate and cry to somebody new
I know the gold's been thrown soon as you got to your room
Counting cars but not the ones that might be his

Not even a memory
So much as a memory
Ever since
