I've walked down every path.
I've dropped everything to turn and listen.

But all I hear is things I hate,
Things of past.
Things I've known,
But that I've failed to cast.

These things have brought me to understand,
I'll never be able to hold your hand.
I'll always be in wonder, of what it could have been.
I'll never fully recover – holding all of this within.
Where did I go wrong?
What did I not do?
Is it something that I said?
I swear I have been true.

You are the light.
You are the sign.
You're the only thing that'll make me happy.
The only thing I want as mine.

Do you not realize how much it really hurt?
Don't you ever wonder how great it could have been?
Are you unable to see what would do for you?
I think it's safe to say that you've never had a clue.

I've never wanted something so much,
And tried to hard to get it.
You're an amazing person,
I cry as I admit.

Just promise me one thing,
Do you think you could?
If it were reversed,
I sure know I would.

Come out from behind that wall.
The one that shields you so well.
The one that's lets you pretend to care,
And hold your real feelings in a shell.
Walk away forever,
And let people learn you're true.
If you had done that from the start,
Maybe I'd still be with you.

When you're far away, cast your eyes up to the stars.
Make sure you remember me saying "This entire picture could be ours"
Bring back every moment, I ever had with you.
Maybe then you'll realize what is really due.

Don't loose yourself again.
Once should be enough.
Learn from your mistakes.
I know for me that it's been tough.

I've done the same thing several times.
I've lost sight of what was at risk.
I've never felt this kind of depression.
Missing but your kiss.

So the times they are a' changing.
Are you changing too?
There's an entire world out there.
But I'll never heal from you.

I'd try again, if I had the chance.
I'd put you in the spotlight.
It is where you now belong.
The power over me makes you ever strong.

But the truth really does hurt.
Forgetting is not forgiving.
Long live that forgotten Rubicon.
It's you that I'll be missing.
