G Bm
The door was unlocked, the TV was on

The foundation's here, but the magic is gone

I let you in, then you let it all decay

The lights are burnt down, the flowers are dead

Somehow I'm still 'supposed to sleep in this bed

Gave you a key, but I couldn't make you stay
β« Pre-Chorus:
Am Cm
But I'm still glad you came to visit

G Bm Bdim C
Love is like a house of fragile things

What we built together, you left in smithereens
