Lyrics Mistakes & Handshakes - Better Luck Next Time

Mistakes & Handshakes

I always told myself that we would never part
Forgetting all the reasons we held back from the start
We’re finding one another in what we call our test,
And everything we put forth to make us second best from the rest
The feeling defining what I’ve got is something when you’re here, now you’re not
We’re taken to the places that we could never see
Looking at what we always thought we’d be
Taken back to disarray;
another time, another day
Promises and time elapse;
a broken smile, a sure collapse
You’re the reason I try;
setting up for our life,
So we can go way back in time to the front of the starting line
Now we can go back home
Finding out that you’re on this ride, do you feel pain inside?
Headed back, now I’m on the run to where my life’s begun
Visions of the lies we tell;
we can’t erase, we always fell
Holding on to what we knew;
it wasn’t ours, it wasn’t true.
