There's a hush about a subject

In the evening when we fool ourselves

A muted lover's symphony

Lorelei in you discretions lay and they're killing me

So if my life was something better

Like a hunter for his maiden

And I brought home everything I could

Would that be enough to hold you, babe

I don't think it would, oh no



Moving on gracefully I was second best

And to see the ease in which you left 

I must confess

It tore my heart in two, over you

And the hardest part was leaving too



So if you find another lover 

Darling don't run for cover 

Just stand your ground, let it all fall down

You can't be the queen of hearts, girl, without your crown no no



Moving on gracefully I was second best

And to see the ease in which you left

I must confess

It tore my heart in two, over you

And the hardest part was leaving too



But now I'm brave enough to see the silence in 

The way your eyes cast aside our promises

And I've finally found a way,

To turn to you and say 

That the hardest part was yesterday
