Threes a stack of daily papers on her doorstep And the grass has grown up more than she'd allow Yes, it seems to me to be a little more like a vacation Never knew that i'd miss her until now From both ends the candle seems to burn much brighter Guess she saw the flame i tried so hard to hide Looks like im the one that got caught in the middle Burnt my finger I got there just in time to watch love die Yea, i got there just in time to watch love die There's a change of address blank inside the mailbox And the key shed usually leave for me not here Yes, its plain to see that she no longer wants an explanation Guess i should have known i would not find her here From both ends the candle seems to burn much brighter I guess she saw the flame i tried so hard to hide Looks like im the one that got caught in the middle Burnt my finger I got there just in time to watch love die But i got there much to late to say goodbye.
