[soft, somber acoustic guitar intro, deepened sound] [verse 1- somber vocals, soft acoustic guitar] Remember when we used to be…….inseparable? And the late night sitting in the field…….surrounded by lights. We’d fall asleep knowing we'd wake up by each other's side. We never had the fear……of hardened times… I know, you wanted us forever…and i know, i promised you forever. But the daydreams were an easy route…..from what would become…my responsibilities to my one. [chorus-soft, somber acoustic] Now your face fades in this instant, a life changed by distance, I can't look at you because it's ripping me apart. My delusions, kept me from the truth, and now i have to scratch and claw, my way back to you. [verse 2- somber vocals, soft acoustic guitar] I didn't mean to purge you of your smile. i know we couldn't stay like this for long. Now the ship that brought her back, is where you stabbed me in the back, I can't think of it because it tears me apart. I know, you say you're mine forever, but i know, you can find someone better, It's so easy to, when were so far apart. Now all of my condolences run….to all you who I've done wrong. [chorus-soft, somber acoustic] Now your face fades in this instant, a life changed by distance, I can't look at you because it's ripping me apart. My delusions, kept me from the truth, and now i have to scratch and claw, my way back to you. [2 minute orchestra instrumental] You say you'll wait for me, But I know you wanna be…..free from this never ending pain The love I have for you, won't ever stop for you, But I can't keep you held up here for long. [orchestra instrumental] [faint whisper] “We can still make all of our dreams happen. Just fight by my side” Now your face fades in this instant, a life changed by distance, I can't look at you because it's ripping me apart. My delusions, kept me from the truth, and now i have to scratch and claw, my way back to you. [orchestra outro]
