I woke tonight, woke with such a fright when I let my mind get back to you.
I've paid price that one pays in life when one thinks that things are meant to be.
If you wait and wait, you're bound to find some things in life take more than time.
It's hard to think, "Could this be right?" But still I'll never let this go.
How could I ever let this go...
...When you fell asleep with your hand in mine? But we knew when morning came around, we'd have to keep our voices down.
"Cause we can't let this get out of hand or of our mouths. So for now, if I can, I'll keep this down.
When you feel you're forced to wave goodbye to everything you thought was right, your spirit breaks; your will to try vanishes before your eyes.
How could this be right...
...When you fell asleep with your hand in mine? But you knew when morning came around, we'd have to keep our voices down.
"Cause we can't let this get out of hand or of our mouths.
This is such a crime to veil; it's such a crime to hide.
One winter since the last, but still these feelings last and last and last.
But everyday, I turn a little more to stone when I think
"Did this mean anything to you?"
If you felt you had to lie, this was never really love. So let's call it what it is.
It's just a boy who tried and tried and tried, but God her heart was far. And far is where it stayed.
Oh I'm so sorry that I'm so lonely.
But don't ever wound what you won't ever kill,
and don't ever stitch what you won't ever heal.
But you fell asleep with your hand in mine
What did that mean?
