Clothes, Friends and Photos

I know that I've got to let you go.

I know that I've got to let you go.

'cause I feel like I'm Ted Hughes and you're Sylvia, and I'm dragging you down and down

'cause I put on love songs, and you put on break-up songs.

And if I kiss someone new, will you just say "don't worry."

But I've sworn not to say that I love you in song.

I've sworn not to say that I love you in song

I've sworn not to say

I've sworn not to say that I love you in song

I've sworn not to say that I love you in song

I've sworn not to say
