| That night in the parking lot
|
| It was late and we talked for hours
|
| You walked me to my car
|
| And I held my breath as you reached out
|
| And put your arms around me
|
| That night at the airport
|
| You told me all about the planes
|
| We talked about our dreams
|
| Fears and insecurities
|
| And that was the night I started falling for you
|
| I’ll never forget when you read my letter
|
| You looked up with tears in your eyes
|
| And I kept quiet but my heart spoke out in my chest
|
| She said please stay
|
| Don’t leave, just stay
|
| Don’t you remember what you said to me
|
| You said you’ll always be here, but now you’re gone
|
| You said it was forever, but I guess forever’s not so long
|
| And I know people change their minds, but when it comes to you
|
| I don’t think I’ll ever change mine
|
| You touch my hands as you lean in my window
|
| And said be careful as I drove away
|
| Did it scare you how much I cared
|
| Is that the reason that you couldn’t stay
|
| And I don’t like sports but I know all his teams
|
| And lately everything’s reminding me of him
|
| And now yesterday was your birthday and we barely talked
|
| This is the part where I’m supposed to move on
|
| So I’ll stay up late trying to distract myself
|
| So I don’t fall asleep thinking of you
|
| You stopped calling me sweet, you stopped calling at all
|
| And I got tired of fighting for you to stay,
|
| Cause you leave, that’s what you do
|
| So why would you say all these things to me
|
| You said you’ll always be here, but now you’re gone
|
| You said it was forever, but I guess forever’s not so long
|
| And I know people change their minds, but when it comes to you
|
| I don’t think I’ll ever change mine
|
| I’ll go on long walks and work on keeping my mouth shut
|
| 'Cause heaven forbid I slip up and say I miss you and ruin everything
|
| Cause we both know that I’m too much for you
|
| And some nights I’ll cry so hard
|
| And wonder if you can feel it all the way across town
|
| I hope you can
|
| You told me I was special
|
| And I thought you really meant it
|
| But I was dead wrong
|
| You said you’ll always be here but now you’re gone
|
| Now you’re gone, oh you’re gone, oh gone
|
| The worst part is knowing that you’re out there
|
| But you don’t think about me, you don’t miss me like you used to
|
| And I hope you know this isn’t what I wanted, I just wanted you
|
| The worst part is knowing that you’re out there
|
| But you don’t want me, you don’t need me like you used to
|
| I miss the old days, I miss your accent
|
| I miss hearing you talk about your family, I miss everything |
