What You Can't Control

I paint the walls the perfect color*
 Then you go and tear them down
 My garden of love blooms with all its wonder
 Then you go and dig it out
 Well what can I say?
 You keep bringing the grey
 And you're making it hard to see clear
 It's been dark for so long
 And I'm ready for sun
 You are no longer welcome here
 You say you're sorry but I know
 Given the chance you'd do it again
 So take your promises and go
 You can't love what you can't control
 I'm building these walls just to keep you away
 Then you go and tear them down
 Well what can I say?
 You keep bringing the grey
 And I don't want you around
 You say you're sorry but I know
 Given the chance you'd do it again
 So take your promises and go
 You can't love what you can't control
 (You can't love {4x})
 Well the grass is greener
 On the other side, it's true
 And there's just no more room
 For me and you
 Don't say you're sorry when I go
 You had your chance, you did it again
 So take your promises and go
 You can't love what you can't control
 You say you're sorry but I know
 Given the chance you'd do it again
 So take your promises and go
 You can't love what you can't control (2x)
 Well the grass is greener
 On the other side it's true
 And there's just no more room
 For me and you
