I used to think if I just waited long enough We'd somehow find our way through all the almosts So I kept making room for you in every plan Like someday you'd reach out and take my hand I turned little moments into something they weren't Found forever in the lessons I never learned Hope's a dangerous thing It makes a dream feel real before it is You weren't mine to lose But I still mourned you like you were Cried over words you never said And something that was never ours I wasn't grieving us There was never an "us" to undo I was just saying goodbye To the life I imagined with you You weren't mine to lose... But I still lost something too I thought one more conversation could change everything One more chance, one more summer, one more maybe Without knowing, my whole world started spinning around Someone who never asked me to wait around One day I realized The memories were real My feelings were real I was grieving something That never got the chance to exist Some people aren't meant to stay They become a season you'll always remember Beautiful while it lasted Impossible to keep You weren't mine to lose But somehow that didn't hurt less You weren't mine to lose... I just had to lose whatever this is Beautiful while it lasted So impossible to keep
