Story Behind The Song
A separation has come between 2 people and one is trying to make a decision on staying or leaving. This person feels if they leave, it will tear him (or her)apart inside. There is a longing inside to always be with this person but the other conscience is reminding him (or her) of past mistakes of hanging on at the wrong time. On the other hand they are thinking that maybe this time it isnt too soon to make this decision of staying (even if something of more importance needs them elsewhere). This person keeps thinking about all the past times when someone said they cared and he (or her) was let down because they found out later the love they were told from the other person never existed. So now they are thinking Can they believe this other person this time enought to stay?

Lyrics
Can you feel?
Can you believe
what is real?
Can you see?
It tears at you
and grips your heart
you feel like you
will fall apart
you fight it back
it speaks to you
you get confused
at what to do
A longings there
but past mistakes
are in your mind
another place
Would it be right
to just assume
maybe this time
it's not too soon
Can you feel?
Can you believe
what is real?
Can you see?
Can you?
Will you?
----Lead break-----
It tears at you
and grips your heart
you feel like you
will fall apart
You fight it back
it speaks to you
you get confused
at what to do
A longings there
but past mistakes
are in your mind
another place
Would it be right
to just assume
maybe this time
it's not too soon
Can you feel?
Can you believe
what is real?
Can you see?
