Max came around one day Very much nothing to say And so we sat in silence by the road It took a while to land He threw his head into his hands And said, "This is too much for man to hold" If you were mine If you were mine I'd let you live Your life Threw my head into his chest I think we did our best But now we must make good on words to God Answered with a weary breath No need to say the rest I fear that we've been lost here for too long If you were mine If you were mine I'd let you live Your life The end of the affair I try to keep us there Shake hands and say goodnight I love you, goodbye Now let me live My life
