This kind of loving is written in the sand
The proof is on your hand
When we wake up and go about our day
You ain't my plan
And I feel bad about the mess we made
But that's the side effect of hurricane

I've written love songs
And sonnets with your name
The promises I made (made, made, made)
One day I'll break them
That's part of how I am
That's part of why you change

'Cause once you're through, I never wanna stay
And when I leave you wish I never came
And I apologize for the damage darling
But that's the side effect of hurricanes

But that's the side effect
But that's the side effect
That's the side effect
That's the side effect

Pull yourself together
Nothing lasts forever, no
Despite our only effort
I still have to let you down

Then all the ashes and reminiscence of us
Is swept away like dust
Just like a movie
The end could make you cry
There is no perfect one

'Cause once you're through, I never wanna stay
And when I leave you wish I never came
And I apologize for the damage darling
But that's the side effect of hurricanes

But that's the side effect
But that's the side effect
That's the side effect
That's the side effect

Pull yourself together
Nothing lasts forever, no
Despite our only effort
I still have to let you down
