Daylight comes with such surprising speed
Yesterday you talked of love and now you want to leave
But don't expect me to stand in your way
I am powerless to alter any action you might take
And I won't take the blame
I was not the one who played the joker in this game
I was not the one who feels nothing anymore
So if you walk out that door, I won't take the blame
And as I look at the girl I once adored
You tell me that I hold you back you tell me that you're bored
So like a pair of clowns we stand around and fight
Why can't you get it over with and walk out of my life?
And I won't take the blame
I was not the one who played the joker in this game
I was not the one who feels nothing anymore
So if you walk out that door, I won't take the blame
And the steps of this old church are peppered with confetti hearts
Like a million little love affairs waiting to fall apart
