When you're old enough |
|
When you've been through it |
|
You won't know what it's like |
|
You can't see things the same |
|
But you're closer now |
|
Did you close your eyes? |
|
Did I close them first? |
|
You weren't strong enough |
|
I'm no stronger than you |
|
But the years take their toll on us all |
|
I'm starting to see why you drifted away after all |
|
And no one explains to you |
|
Where the things go that you love |
|
'Till they're already gone |
|
You held on for us |
|
The house gathered dust |
|
We were selfish then |
|
And we held on to things |
|
But they're all gone now |
|
Did I take too long? |
|
Did I ask too much? |
|
I didn't love you as much as I could |
|
The silence is killing me now |
|
I'm starting to see why you drifted away after all |
|
And no one explains to you |
|
Where the things go that you love |
|
How many times will I try to pretend that you're here? |
|
And I had a few questions I never got to ask you in time |
|
'Cause you'd already gone |
