Lyrics Forever Ago - Cliffhanger

Forever Ago

One more drink before it’s closing time
You know I’ve never been one for these awkward goodbyes
I want to be the fly on the wall
Escape the crowd above it all
Fly into the cloudy sky, miles away and feeling so high
Tongue tied trying to come up with the lines to get my stories right
There’s no end in sight
So caught up in the parts we play
That we left no room for mistakes
Is it too late to just slip away?
I’m out of words and I don’t know what I know here anymore
One foot out the door, but I can’t say what I’m leaving for
One day I’ll find a way back town again
But for now, I’m that old friend you’ll see every now and then
I wish I could tell you what I’m thinking when I daydream
But I bet that I’ll forget all the new songs in my head
I can’t pretend that I won’t ever make amends so I’ll stay miles away and you
should join me if you can
Tongue tied trying to come up with the lines to get my stories right
There’s no end in sight
So caught up in the parts we play
That we left no room for mistakes
Is it too late to just slip away?
I’m out of words and I don’t know what I know here anymore
One foot out the door, but I can’t say what I’m leaving for
Maybe I’ll find a way back to town again
But for now I’m that old friend that you might never see again
Under the circumstances things all worked out in my favor and I don’t want my
luck to run out yet
I increasingly can’t stop looking over my shoulder to avoid placing the losing
bet
I’m out of words and I don’t know what I know here anymore
One foot out the door, but I can’t say what I’m leaving for
Maybe I’ll find a way back town again
But for now, I’m that old friend you’ll see every now and then
Under the circumstances things all worked out in my favor and I don’t want my
luck to run out yet
I increasingly can’t stop looking over my shoulder to avoid placing the losing
bet
