Our thirdheart story

If you wanted me to pay, I did

For every way I hurt you then

You walked away, I watched you go

Spent ten years trying to let you go

I thought you moved on, thought you were fine

While I was trying to rebuild my life

Then I learned what you went through

All those years, you were hurting too

I paid a thousand times over

Trying like hell to get over you

A thousand nights wishing I could

A thousand times thinking I finally would

One heart broke when you walked away

Two hearts hurt in different ways

Ten years later, we finally broke through

The pain I blamed

Led me back to you

We built two lives, we chose two roads

Did everything to let us go

But losing me still hurt you too

And losing you still cut me through

That’s when it finally became clear

We didn’t hurt because love disappeared

We spent ten years trying to move on

Just to learn it was still this strong

We hurt a thousand times over

Trying like hell to get over each other

A thousand nights wishing we could

A thousand times thinking we finally would

One heart broke, then two hearts bled

But neither one could forget the other

Ten years later, we finally broke through

The pain that broke us

Brought me back to you

I thought the pain meant let you go

You were learning what I already know

If ten years couldn’t make it disappear

Maybe losing us made everything clear

We tried so hard to leave love behind

But the harder we ran, the more we’d find

The pain wasn’t saying we should be through

It was showing me how much I loved you

We hurt a thousand times over

And never got over each other

Ten years apart just made it clear

Why losing us hurt all those years

One heart broke, then two hearts bled

Now a third heart beats instead

Ten years later, we finally broke through

The pain that broke us

Brought me back to you

A thousand times over

We tried to let go

It took us ten years

To finally know.
