Songtexte

Time to move on, kick my life into gear
And try not to think of forever
Companions in apathy, cruising the years
You and I getting by being separate together
So I packed up your things and I pushed back the thoughts
So I wouldn't be forced to consider your pain
Didn't pay any mind to the oughts and nots
Or the certainty I'd never see you again
But I see every day, guess it's with me to stay
That look as I started away
Though I wait, absolution just won't come my way
There's no one to say it's okay
But I hope and I pray anyway
You went quietly enough, I was safe, it was over
But I stopped to glance back one last time
That look as you stared at me over your shoulder
Is stuck in my heart and fixed in my mind
Your eyes spoke the words that your tongue couldn't say
In six years together, what did I ever do?
To deserve to be left and abandoned this way
For I've always been faithful and always been true
I can see every day, guess it's with me to stay
That look as I started away
Though I wait, absolution just won't come my way
There's no one to say it's okay
But I hope and I pray anyway
I can see every day, guess it's with me to stay
That look as I started away
Though I wait, absolution just won't come my way
There's no one to say it's okay
But I hope and I pray anyway
