[x4]
Why did you go when i wanted you stay
When your not beside me you always seem so far away
Understanding moments where you need to be free
But of all the things i wanted i never wanted you to leave
Why did you go when i wanted you stay
When your not beside me you always seem so far away
Understanding moments where you need to be free
But of all the things i wanted i never wanted you to leave
Time keeps slipping around us
I wish it would stand still
World keeps moving even faster
There's never time to do
All the things we need to do now.
