A Few Notes For Orpheus (Acoustic)

Listen up and listen well

I'm still here to tell this tale

Of how I dwell on each mistake I've made

I'm still stuck in these old ways

No one should ever have to feel like this

To feel just like me

But I'm moving on

It'll feel as good as it is sad

We could have had the whole damn world we wanted

In the palm of our hands

But if I'm honest with you now

I'll say goodbye and I wish you well

Is it too late to make this up with truths?

Should I let go of you?

And now I've come to realize

These are the words I always had but kept inside

We grew up and it's sad to see

That some things aren't meant to be

 

And if I could let go of every fault I try and hide

And blame the way I act in how I live

Because it's myself I can't forgive

You know I would have been there for you every moment of every day

But I'm moving on

It'll feel as good as it is sad

We could have had the whole damn world we wanted

In the palm of our hands

But if I'm honest with you now

I'll say goodbye and I wish you well

Is it too late to make this up with truths?

Should I let go of you?

And now I've come to realize

These are the words I always had but kept inside

We grew up and it's sad to see

That some things aren't meant to be

 

So what's left of the person that you never really knew

Who's more and more alone each day

And regrets ever meeting you

Who's still hurting and always learning?

You're just someone now in my rearview

When I look behind I see our love that ended too soon
