Hey there stranger
Do you remember
You were a part of my life

Early December
Think I remember
Sentiment cuts like a knife

The seasons are changing

Life's rearranging
Full of good times
Would have beans
Its all your fault
And wherever you been
And how time goes
And though I don't even know
How to fill in the spaces
Of the love you've erased in my life

Are you where you wanted to be

Did you get there easily
Did I make you sacrifice
Did you make a sharp left
When you should have turned right
Are you where you wanted to be

Did you sell off all your gold
Did you trade it in
Did you wait for love

Or settle for somebody to hold

And barely symphonic
But strangely ironic
Moments contained in one glance

Oh how I adored you
But now I'm ignored by you
Nowhere a tint of romance

And now its vaguely familiar
I think I remember sharing every single intimacy
It doesn't seem so strange to me that we barely entertained
Even the politest of phrases
But sometimes at night
I conjure you up in my mind
Are you where you wanted to be

Did you get there easily
Did I make a sharp left
Did you make a sharp left
When you should turned right

Are you where you wanted to be

Did you sell off all your gold
Did you trade it in
Did you wait for love
Or settle for somebody to hold

While I was busy
Perfecting the art
Of deflecting compliments
I took it too far
And I let a ripple run right through my heart
Of battle stations we're building
You and I just grew apart

We grew apart

While I decided
To make everyone else happy
I just put aside
My foolish pride
I guess I denied
My own desire
I was too busy pleasing
To ever be pleased
I forgot how to breathe
Or question anything
Or ask why

Am I

Am I where I wanted to be
Did I get here easily
Did I make a sacrifice
Did I take a sharp left
When I should have turned right
Am I where I wanted to be

Can I sell off all of my gold

Can I trade it in
Will I wait for love
Or settle for somebody to hold

I'd settle for somebody to hold now

You know that I've been up and I've been down
I've been picked up and spun around

I'd do it all again

If I could just have somebody to hold now

I just need somebody to hold now

Could somebody hold me now

I just want somebody to hold me now

Do it all again
