Half-Hearted Girl

She was cigarette laced
Panty twisted
Mind on the moment
Completely simplistic

So I fell in love
With the half hearted girl
Knowing she could never love me back
But the smell of the ashtray
And feel of her skin
Could always make me crack

I left home to find her
Traveled the earth
Followed in her footsteps
To figure out exactly how much she was worth

So I fell in love
With the half hearted girl
Knowing she could never love me back
But the smell of the ashtray
And feel of her skin
Could always make me crack

And I cracked like no one before
As I stared into her coffee colored curls
Wondered when this moment would fall into dust
And if she could even remember my name
So before my heart was broken
I left the half hearted girl
Found her then left her on the other side of the world
Knowing she could never love me back

Married with kids
I saw her again
Called out to her
Tried to make amends

But she fell in love
With the half hearted boy
Thinking that I would love her back
But the smell of the ashtray
And feel of her skin
Could always make me crack
So before my heart was broken
I left the girl in love
Thinking I could never love her back
