I mastered the art of falling in love

Dreamt lives lived with each love

Every possible scenario enacted

Every pleasure and pain achieved

I mastered the art of falling in love


This man delivering a package

This woman serving morning coffee

All the beautiful and ugly people

I mastered the art of falling in love


Imagining them love me, hate me

Is what I do to take on the hours

Proof that people can love still

I mastered the art of falling in love


All these lived loves always ending

For my love for you refuses to die

For your love of me refuses to begin

I mastered the art of falling in love


Every day hoping you’ll call but don’t

Every day you love this someone else

Us two dying to be loved so this is why

I mastered the art of falling in love
