lyrics

When I take into account everything I've seen
You don't want to be alone you just don't want to be with me.
You keep crawling back to the same mistake
that didn't work out from the beginning

They say time heals all wounds
so where did the time go?

What about what I said to you on that late autumn day?
it was a hopeful dream of mine
and it felt real for a while to me.

And its true that me and you are both better off
on separate paths completely uninvolved.
But that doesn't stop the constant wonder of
'what if you gave us a chance?'

You bury me under all the words I thought I'd never hear you say
and I will stay underground so you can dig me up in May.

Surreal. It was so real to me.
Oh you know it felt real to me.

What about what I said to you on that late autumn day?
It was a hopeful dream of mine and a dream it will stay.

I never wanted to leave things this way.
Our best memories are fading to gray.

But things are so different now
And we can't go back.
