lyrics

I guess your heart wasn't in it
You could have told me right away instead of struggling to spin it
Into one last week alone
You could have told me on the phone, but I guess you tried

Oh can you see me at the station
Pacing back and forth and I'm getting impatient
Oh what a sorry sight
I'd rather go out with a fight, but I guess you tried

So I sat on the platform
Thinking you must be late

Although I waited there, I was mistaken
I never thought I'd lose you by taking my time
I called you back but it was too late
Maybe this was the only thing I needed to
Understand my life's not completed
Until I find someone to help me let go

So now I stare at my reflection
In a supermarket window, I remember that tension
Standing in the checkout line
I acted like it was a crime to want to be alone

Now I stand at your front door
Knowing that it's too late

(Although I waited there, I was mistaken
I never thought I'd lose you by taking my time
I called you back but it was too late
Maybe this was the only thing I needed to
Understand my life's not completed
Until I find someone to help me let go) x2
