I Was Once A Loyal Lover Lyrics

Will I have learned so very little
When these bones are old and brittle
I wait to talk when I should listen
And cloud mistakes with false revisions
All my friends are forward thinking
Getting hitched and quiting drinking
And I can feel them pulling away
As I'm resigned to stay the same
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e40538-death_cab_for_cutie~i_was_once_a_loyal_lover_lyrics.html ]
And you can't even begin to know
How many times I've told myself "I told you so"

I was once a loyal lover
Who's lips did never seek anothers
But now each love is like a match
A blinding spark that burns out fast
And they all conclude with the same sentence:
"I've never met someone so self-centered,
Who thinks that life with a nice girl's,
Like waiting for the bus to work"

And you can't even begin to know
How many times I've told myself "I told you so"
And you can't even begin believe
So many bridges engulfed in flames behind me

If you deem it so
Just cut the chord and go
You'll be fine
There's plenty of hills to climb

And you can't even begin to know
How many times I've told myself "I told you so"
And you can't even begin believe
So many bridges engulfed in flames behind me
