lyrics

Where have you been?
I thought I was free of you
Like the scene from a film
Dragging me back there
Sometimes it’s too much
Well actually it’s all the time
Too frail to touch
The ridiculous to sublime

You came into my mind again
Like you have done many times before
I can see you standing in that dress
Greeting me every time I came to your door

We were so young then
I should’ve known better
Lost in the moment
But you wouldn’t let yourself fall
I was the weak one
You were much stronger
Principled angel
And you wouldn't let yourself fall

The sharing of time
Knowing we shouldn’t
Hearts on the line
Silences filled with
Knowing it will end
Not wanting it to ever
Missing you my friend
Not wanting to leave you

I’m taking back these frequencies
Jammed up with broadcasts and such
Because I have this tendency
To think about you way too much

We were so young then
I should’ve known better
Lost in the moment
But you wouldn’t let yourself fall
I was the weak one
You were much stronger
Principled angel
And you wouldn't let yourself fall
