Best and Worst Days

I never wanted to stay,

But how could I leave it that way?

It's years since it left me,

All those years to say goodbye,

But the shame always feels the same.

Is it cruel to say I miss you,

Or kind to tell those lies?

I could see it in your eyes,

Cos those were the worst days in the best years of our lives,

And I'm sorry I made it that way.

And all my life,

Is spent just wondering how you'd use,

One moment frozen with me,

Can I help you choose?

(But remember!)

The Worst of times are like the best,

They're all passing away.

They're passing away!

I remember when,

We couldn't get ourselves out of bed,

It feels so strange to think of,

All my memories fade to black,

And I know I shouldn't ever look back.

But the days are getting longer,

The nights are not as wild,

I could see it in your smile,

That those were the best days in the worst years of my life,

And I'm glad that I once knew you too.

And all my life,

Is spent just wondering how you'd use,

One moment frozen with me,

Can I help you choose?
