Faithfully

Hmm-mm faithful I surrendered you In all the shades of love and hell you put me through And I remember you In all the ways you would and wouldn't want me to But if I lay down and close my eyes I've got a photographic memory of your brighter sides So when I stand back In the hallway And I hang you in a gold frame All the dark and shaded parts And the innocence we lost Oh, my love, you have to trust There's a sympathetic touch When I hang you In the hallway And I'm looking at your likeness in a gold frame Oh, I promise I'll be trying to Capture all the ways you Made me feel So when I'm painting Oh, I'll paint you faithfully (Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully) (Oh-oh) faithfully, faithfully (Oh-oh) faithfully We were living in the fallout In a war of words Where no one is the good guy And it's not about who fired first We don't clutter our heroes With justifications But they never live in the morally gray bits But I'm not a hero And neither were you Oh, there's nothing that I wanna misconstrue When I open To a new page And I'm dusting off the sweetness and heartache All the dark and shaded parts And the innocence we lost Oh, my love, you have to trust There's a sympathetic touch When you make it To the last page (to the last page) And all the words are running through you like a freight train (oo) Oh, I promise I'll be trying to Capture all the ways you made me feel (you made me feel) oo-oo When I'm writing Oh, I'll write you faithfully (Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully) (Oh-oh) faithfully, faithfully (Oh-oh) faithfully And in the middle of the heat (and in the middle of the heat) I said some things to you, I swore I'd not repeat Lost the plot, and ripped the canvas right in two Oh love, (oh love) (oh love) In the trail of the car crash And all the things we couldn't ever take back Oh, it left me black and blue I don't speak in absolutes Since the time that I told you I'd always love you faithfully (Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully) (Oh-oh) faithfully, faithfully (Oh-oh) faithfully, faithfully
