Shifting Sands

 

I can't tell you how I feel,

So I'll just write it down

To get it out my head.

So many things I'd like to say.

Like so many prisoners

Locked up in my chest.

We used to be,

We used to be...

I could say all the words

I think you'd somehow

Want to hear from me

But it wouldn't matter.

It wouldn't mean a thing

Cause in the end, 

You can always see

Straight through me.

We used to be,

We used to be...

I wish that we could've stayed 

The way we were back then

But time moves fast,

The moments pass 

And even good things must end.

We tried to build a castle 

On shifting sand

But in the changing of the seasons

It slipped away

Right through our hands.

We used to be, 

We used to be...

I will always cherish

The memories of you.
