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.
