Never Going To Stay
I had you high
You sat on the moon
As far as I was concerned
A sweet lullaby
To top off the worst day of my life
Had I known
Maybe I would've said something
But I let you go
Because we both know
Where a love like this goes
I burn
Because I burned for you
Every night
Every light
That went off inside me
When you were next to me
Suddenly everything means more
And then in the next breath
You're walking out that door
And I know
It's never been this cold
In the summer
Had I known
I would've saved you
I can't change it
I can't be your friend
You and I
We can't go back to what we were then
It's wrong
It's falling down on us
And I can't breathe with you
Crushing my heart
So I'll let you go
Even if doing so
Makes breathing a little harder
Makes this walk
A little longer
Because either way
One of us had to go
And you were never gong to stay
