We held our breath 
and tried to tow the line 
now it's all a memory 
it's getting better all time 
I'd rather change the world 
than how I feel inside 
you had your mothers broken heart 
your fathers laughing eyes 

Now I write words down for ghost 
and I couldn't help but notice 
was that just goodbye 
you know I couldn't tell 
a heart that's made of gold 
doesn't mean that it's for sale 
you taught me how to love 
and set me up to fail 
gave me prayers without the words 
a cross without the nails 
and let me go 

We said we'd try to win 
or we would lose it all 
left you in the sunshine 
but missed you most of fall 
and all those little things that 
seem to take to long 
said a million times I loved you 
but only in a song 

Now I just can't find the notes 
and I couldn't help but notice 
was that just goodbye 
you know I couldn't tell 
a heart that's made of gold 
doesn't mean that it's for sale 
you taught me how to love 
and set me up to fail 
gave me prayers without the words 
a cross without the nails 
I just can't find what you see in me now 

It was enough to make it right 
just not enough to save your life 
yeeah 
was it hard enough to know 
that you would never make it home 
I just can't find what you see in me [x2] 
I just can't find what you see in me now 

Was that just goodbye 
you know I couldn't tell 
a heart that's made of gold 
doesn't mean that it's for sale 
you taught me how to love 
and set me up to fail 
gave me prayers without the words 
a cross without the nails 
and let me go 

I just can't find what you see in me [x2] 
I just can't find what you see in me now 
yeah yeah yeah 
I just can't find what you see in me [x2] 
I just can't find what you see in me now
