I.O.U.

The fact always remains the same
You cannot change the unchanging
I find I'm always rearranging
the blocks you left inside my head
Up here, they are safe
even if I'd rather throw them at you instead.

But you left me a message
They're saying something to me

They spell I.O.U.
a new love
a new day
I.O.U.
everything you ever gave to me
I.O.U.
the best time of your life
But what I see
is that the only thing I need from you
is me.

Too many days and weeks, now a year's gone by,
and you're still trying to get behind my eyes.
You miss the warmth and my heart.
You get my drift
in this final depart,
but you don't leave before you've had your say,
and it's okay.
Pass it on.

They spell I.O.U.
a new love
a new day
I.O.U.
everything you ever gave to me
I.O.U.
the best time of your life
But what I see
is that the only thing I need from you
is me.
