we're sitting in between our eyes

when i notice

there's no friction

in these december skies

oh i wonder why

we can't continue our own lives



our chance past

i just want to know it

but then you go away

so many things left for another day

but i want to last

i won't just show it

i can't remember why

but i hope you had your say



it's always about this time

when i start to think about

all those things

i know you could do without

you left me standing here

i can't face this fear

who cares

i guess that's what you say



why has this all gone wrong

i'd never think to notice

but then you were gone

now i'm left alone

standing in the cold



why has this all gone wrong

i'd never think to notice

but then you were gone

now i'm left alone

standing in the cold

in the cold



i saw it

i guess you knew it

it only happens once

i just can't do it

i saw it

i guess you knew it

it only happens once

i see right through it



that only goes to show

expectations that were once so high always end up below

you had me turning red

we'll never fall apart

that's what she said

what she said



why has this all gone wrong

i'd never think to notice

but then you were gone

now i'm left alone

standing in the cold



why has this all gone wrong

i'd never think to notice

but then you were gone

now i'm left alone

standing in the cold

in the cold
