Tip of My Tongue

An empty house Is the only thing standin' Between our lives And the speed of sound Some words flew out And made a crash landin' No love survived Not a trace could be found [Chorus:] I broke your heart With the back of my mind From the tip of my tongue To the end of the line I walked away And you stood there tremblin' Like a leaf In the autumn chill Now this house won't say no What I'm still rememberin' Three angry words And a love that they killed [Chorus] [Bridge:] You couldn't say how much it hurt you And I couldn't see the damage I'd done Till I watched the greatest love I've known All come down to a slip of the tongue Well, I'd take it back But time won't let me No, time just takes You further away I watched you pack A house full of memories Where did you go Lord, what did I say? [Chorus]
