lyrics

All the things I never told you
Will never see the light of day
Like how I always loved your smile
And how I wish you would've stayed
I couldn't bring myself to tell you
You never seemed to want to hear
And now the final nail is in the coffin and my last chance has been put to rest

I will change the names and places
So you don't have to live with that

All our talks are spoken
And all our time was stolen
All these years now gone to waste
Still I, I'm so glad we met but
It killed me when you left me
Maybe someday you'll remember
But I won't hold my breath

All the things I never showed you
All are long since packed away
I couldn't hang on you no longer
No, I got tired of the wait
I just can't bring myself to move on, but know I cannot stay the same
So where's that leave me now? I'm somewhere in between
I'm somewhere I cannot remain

I've never had a mind for faces
But yours I never could forget

All our talks are spoken
And all our time was stolen
All these years now gone to waste
Still I, I'm so glad we met but
It killed me when you left me
Maybe someday you'll remember
But I won't hold my breath

Oh, I wish you'd want to see me, but know it's not the case
And that I have to live with, and with that I've made my peace
But if ever you should change your mind and want to meet
You know just how to find me
Yeah, you know where I'll be

But I can't promise how I'll be then
After all this defeat
I might've had to build a wall around where you were
In my heart to set you free…

As long as we're apart, I
I'll always be broken
From forever to the grave
Still I, I'm so glad we met but
It killed me when you left me
Maybe someday you'll remember
But I won't hold my breath
No, I won't hold my breath

I will be quietly trying to forget
