Lyrics
V1:
Things changed
I?ve never thought for a second
But life?s changed
It?s not a matter of opinion
Just hear say
But when she dropped the bomb
It blew up in my face
So how long
Should it take to take the past
And erase
Get back to basics
Put a smile on my face
Can we back it up
Or can things not be the same
Pre:
Never thought we?d break
Guess the rules have changed
Are we better off alone
I know differently
Since I learned to let go
CH:
Thought about leaving
Thought about saving face
Against the odds
It?s just that people make mistakes
I thought about trying
To let you walk away
But in the end
We?re bigger than a small mistake
V2:
Sometimes
It takes somebody else to want to realize
The only one you love it
Right before your eyes
Would you, as if you could
Take back your pride
But now you can because your heart won?t lie
If I?m the only one who matters
Than let?s ride
Pre:
Never thought we?d break
Guess the rules have changed
Are we better off alone
I know differently
Since I learned to let go
CH:
Thought about leaving
Thought about saving face
Against the odds
It?s just that people make mistakes
I thought about trying
To let you walk away
But in the end
We?re bigger than a small mistake
Bridge:
If looks could kill
My heart would shatter
But you?re the only one to me that matters
So
I?ll take my chances
Yeah
We?ll be alright
And
I?ll keep holding onto you cause it feels so right
My mind, my soul may try to run away
But if they did I?d still think about you everyday
The price for pain
Is finding happiness
My mind?s made up, is yours?
Are you feeling this?
CH:
Thought about leaving
Thought about saving face
Against the odds
It?s just that people make mistakes
I thought about trying
To let you walk away
But in the end
We?re bigger than a small mistake
