Baby
I sorely miss the vibrant gleam that's in your eyes
I'll write a song about it
And maybe if the melody's just right
I hope tonight it will find you
It will remind you
But what's holding me back
Is the thought of time we never had
My world's hanging by three words that I can't bear to say
When you hear this chorus
Do you miss the way the world was spinning for us?
Do you hurt the way that I do?
After all this time you
Leave me broken
This song is every word I left unspoken
When you hear this, girl
I'm hoping that you'll think of us
Baby, I told myself that I'll be fine
But it's a lie
I don't want to talk about it
Memories, oh they cut like knives
Deep inside I'm falling
Baby catch me if you can
But what's holding me back
Is the thought of time we never had
My world's hanging by three words that I can't bear to say.
[X2]
When you hear this chorus
Do you miss the way the world was spinning for us?
Do you hurt the way that I do?
After all this time you
Leave me broken
This song is every word I left unspoken
When you hear this, girl
I'm hoping that you'll think of us.
That you'll think of us.
Baby, I sorely miss the vibrant gleam that's in your eyes.
