Love Became Another Place To Hide

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

You held my hand and called it love

Said I was everything you dreamed of

Somewhere underneath your practiced smile

You faded out a little every while

Tracing the grain on the passenger door

Quiet as a house with no one home

Instrumental Interlude

Verse 2

I handed over parts I can't replace

Then watched you turn your shoulder to my face

Now every time somebody gets too close

I feel the old familiar chill and close

Counting the cracks along the kitchen tile

Waiting for the ending all the while

Chorus

Love became another place to hide

A bright and brittle thing that quietly died

I don't know how to let anyone in

Or trust the way I trusted you back then

Love became another place to hide

(Another place to hide)

Instrumental Break

Bridge

I wanted love to feel like home

Now I'd rather be alone

I wanted somewhere safe to land

Now I only want the empty hand
