Chorus

Her love is in your headYou lost your earrings in her bedYou couldn't tell her that you lost 'em'Cause you're scared and you're not talkingSo you think of what to sayThen save it for another day'Cause you just never had the heartNow they just drift further apart

Bridge

From you, ohFrom you, ohFrom you, ohFrom you, oh
