Verse 1
Thank you mam for asking, yes I am on my own
I guess its kind of obvious, I am eating here alone
I'm grateful for the company, tired of talking to myself
Don't you look into my eyes, for you might see someone else
Chorus
Love is a small and fragile thing
I spent a lot of cold nights missing you
Keep it in your hands or let it take wing
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
Bridge
Verse 2
I've been to see a movie, about a man who saved the world,
Had the same old happy ending, where the hero gets the girl
And all I ever wanted was to be that hero too
Then I might still be with her instead of here with you
Chorus
Love is a small and fragile thing
I spent a lot of cold nights missing you
Keep it in your hands or let it take wing
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
Verse 3
Thank you for your time now, I'm gonna go and walk
Might as well do that, because I am running out of talk
I could walk a thousand miles tonight, and never find my place
At least until it gets too light to hide my tearful face
Chorus
Love is a small and fragile thing
I spent a lot of cold nights missing you
Keep it in your hands or let it take wing
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
Bridge
(Single strums)
Verse 4
(Single strums)
There's a low ballet on the highway, brief faces in the light
I catch them for a second, heading somewhere in the night
(Back to normal strumming)
We have no connection, but the darkness and the road
I better find a place tonight, I better call it home
Chorus
Love is a small and fragile thing
I spent a lot of cold nights missing you
Keep it in your hands or let it take wing
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
I spend a lot of cold nights missing you
