(Verse) He put the coffee in the cup and with milk he filled it up He added sugar and I never knew he liked it like that (Verse) He took his coat from the hook and his scarf and his hat And he put down a key and said I won't be needing that And he turned and smiled and said that explained it all And he walked down the hall and he opened the door And said I'll call, I'll call (Chorus) Why do I bring you love When all you give me back is pain Why do we search it out To watch you wash your hands and walk away (Verse) Now there's a black black black bird in my chest All the flatter all changed in Wanting to break free with the wolves in my head You're tearing every words that I should have said (Chorus) Why do I bring you love When all you give me back is pain Why do we search it out To watch you wash your hands and walk away (Bridge) We're like the strangers we were When we first met But the pain in strangers had the end And all that remains is a day without plans The loneliness and the forever lost (Chorus) x2 Why do I bring you love When all you give me back is pain Why do we search it out To watch you wash your hands and walk away
