lyrics

First glance I had on you I couldn’t move
I forgot everything I’d planned to do
First glance I was caught staring, but I lost caring
You silenced me and locked me with your eyes

I tried to protest
but reason gave me the test and I did what I thought best and released

But we lapse again
We crash again
I can’t beg the birds to sing
I can’t wear your comfort ring
Oh my sight is lost in your eyes

Last night you and me felt like we
were meant to be when I was inside
But then we spoke
I knew what I was about to do
would end with you pushing me aside
But I spoke, I bumped the glass, it spilled out fast
Everything I held inside

You tried to protest
but reason put you to rest and you did what you do best and released
You turned to me, face to cheek, I couldn’t see but felt on me I made you cry

But we lapse again
We crash again
I can’t beg the birds to sing
I can’t wear your comfort ring
Oh my sight is lost in your eyes

This time I thought the seas would change for me
but the current tugged I gave up and shrugged
Again I’ll lose
Don’t make me choose
I’ll be fine
