Howie Day - No Longer What You Require lyrics

We had it all We were young lovers We were full of trust and faith We were dead set on making It last forever Forever and a day I recall it was fall last year When it started to die Standing still As the temperature k**s The summer's thrills That were keeping it alive The days got colder So I held you closer In effort to save us some time Almost like the wind came And ruined the spark And left us in the dark But hey, I could've told you That I loved you and stayed Around to kindle the fire But I was late. on my return And now you've lost all faith And I am the liar I'm no longer what you require I still feel you at night Turning in the sheets When I turn out the light That's how it goes The ghost of your first love Won't ever leave you Till the day that you die I won't ever live down Leaving her behind Even if the choice was the right one It was a good thing Staring me right in the face But I turned and ran away Hey, I could've told you That I loved you and stayed Around to kindle the fire But I was late, on my return And now you've lost all faith And I am the liar I'm no longer what you require Back then The days were so much faster We were young, stubborn And in love with disaster You know you can't go back Even if you try You better just forget her Won't you close the door on me Cause it'll never be the same It'll never be the way It was before Well hey, I could've told you That I loved you and stayed Around to kindle the fire But I was late, on my return And now you've lost all faith And I am the liar Oh hey, I would've told you That I loved you and stayed Around to kindle the fire But I was late, on my return And so you've lost all faith In the dying light I'm no longer what you require I'm no longer what you require No longer
