Lyrics

I've been thinking that I
Should be without you for awhile,
'Cause I know there must
Be more to this life than just us.

But it's so hard to say goodbye
'Cause I know it's not quite our time.
But how do I put in words
What I want to say to you tonight?

Chorus:
That we need to reconnect to
The place where we started from or else
We can't grow any more than we have to
To stay in each other's arms,
'Cause it's so hard to see
The way we used to be.

I'll be holding my breath
Until you take in what I've said
'Cause your face reads like a book
And I can't even bear to look.

I love you too much to say I'm ok
But I can't string you along.
To say that it's not you, it's me
Is just an excuse to say I'm wrong.

Chorus

What happened I may be able
To explain to you in time.
But for now I know I cannot stay
With you another night.

We need to reconnect to
The place where we started from

Chorus
