We lived between the yes and no Afraid to stay, afraid to go You held my hand like you were sure Then let it fall without a word I learned the spaces in your mind The things you kept, the things you hid And somewhere in the passing time We lost the chance we never took I think we wanted different things Or never knew what wanting meant We made a home of almosts And wondered where the summer went So let the pages turn to dust And take the parts that looked like us I'll leave your name in yesterday And teach my heart to look away There's no one here to take the blame We both were lost in different ways And though it hurts to let you go Nothing's forever, and here's the end I'll change the songs I used to play Find other roads to take me home Until the places where we stayed Become just places I have known You weren't cruel, and I wasn't kind We only ran from making choices And in the end, we left behind A love that never found its voice I'll keep no promise to remember No little hope beneath the ache Just let the years erase the edges Of every memory we made And when I think of you someday I hope there's nothing left to say
