"What did you say?" I said.
"I said I spoke." You said.

>

"Did you?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"I don't know."
"Why not?"
"?!"

>

We walked down the aisle
Side by side.
Together. Us two.
Smile on smile on smile.

Forever...

Fast Fwd >>

You leave for work
with a peck on the cheek
Such a cold cheek and gone.

A distant ache catches my heart.
I wonder what went wrong.

Fast Fwd >>

I'm not me anymore.
You are not you.

I say "I love you" to satisfy your pride.
But I lied. I lied. I lied.

I shout.
You shout.
I hate.
You hate.
We cry and cry inside.

When I said
"My love is forever."
I didn't know I lied.

Forever was so short
for our love.

We parted our bond
of body and mind

And denied. denied. denied.

|_| Stop

We stand
and look with empty eyes
at the corpse of our love
and the distance so wide.

And now the tears fall
And the heart is sore.
now that it's too late
we let down our pride
We look deep
in tear-filled eyes.

Side by side by side.

| | Pause

Play >

Maybe we could have been other.
Maybe we could have tried.
But someway a darker world
crept deep and deeper inside.

But we still see each other
every now and then.
And we talk so easy.
Gentle now.
As friends.
