lyrics

It wasn’t easy moving past it
My mind is racing don’t know why
I thought that maybe we could give it a try just you and I
racking my brain
Searching for things that I’ve done wrong
It was easier to know that I was second in line a in case it wasn’t on

But looking around in my mind
When I see all the signs that made me want to make you mine
I stop, I drop, I roll, I cry because I know that you and i would fly
Away, to the deepest blues of the sky
I’m on my hands and knees, just asking why
Why am I
on the sidelines
Not sure where to run
Not sure of which side I’m on
But I’m going down fast and I know
It’s only time that
I concede to let you go
Would it have worked well I’ll never know
All I know is that I’ll never forget about you

this feeling just won’t go away
Was it me who made a mistake
Well you already told me no
But I can’t help but think
What if time didn’t pass, what if I didn’t call you every day
What if I just gave you space
Would I have to forget about you
Would I be

on the sidelines
Not sure where to run
Not sure of which side I’m on
But I’m going down fast and I know
It’s only time that
I concede to let you go
Would it have worked well I’ll never know
All I know is that I’ll never forget about you
