almost like i love you to death

i would stand under a lamppost
and take all night to say
i love you i love you (i love you ...)

the very thing that will drive
you further away i love you
i love you (i love you ...)

smaller and smaller you become
the farther away you run i love
you i love you (i love you ...)

my lips continue to mutter
though you disappear from my sight
i love you i love you (i love you...)

till you're well and truly gone.
