He Said, She Said


He has her wings in a jar 
and it doesn't seem to bother him 
and he says she could be a star 
but no-one seems to notice them 
he said she said..."I loved you though they didn't know you then" 

She's had her day in the sun 
-how she feels when she's alone with him 
and that day seems so long ago 
she wants to feel that shine again 
he said she said..."I promised I'd never leave you then" 

Climbing over the mountains of broken promises 
-things we never meant to say- 
isn't quite as easy as to turn and just walk away 
-or maybe that's just me- 
All my castles of sand the tide will come and wash away 
-and there I'll stand- 
with the memories of what we were running through 
the cracks in my hands... 

There'll be flowers on the grave 
of a blinding flame no-one could save 
a fading glimpse of too much soul 
all she could give is what she gave 
he said she said..."I loved you, though you didn't know me then"
