i wrote this after my boyfriend and i broke up
Folks tend to ask:
"Where does the love go?"
I buried it.
I took our love and I put it in the ground
It's not that I was ashamed or embarrassed
No, how could any love be such a way?
But I couldn't stand the sight of it anymore
And our love, I'm sorry to say, is extremely annoying without you
It would taunt me, mock me, critizize me, haunt me!!!
So I had to bury it darlin' so I would have time to dream about your eyes
And what could have been
And the sound of your voice when you would whisper "Te amo!"
GOD DAMNIT!
I thought this love was 6 feet under!
I took the time, I carefully dug the hole, and let you go
I wanted you in the ground, so when I die you'd be there to catch me
Maybe than I would finally be in your arms
I knew I should've done it the right way
I should've buried you in my heart
Pushed you back, pulled you down
Secured you inside the depths of me
Ha! Where you've... always said you wanted to be
I wanted to bury you in my heart
But I'm still not strong enough to dig that hole
