Walking on broken glass
Lost in a dark room
Trying to find you
Boxes of photographs
Pictures and postcards
Places I saw you last
(You last)
I don't know how to get to you tonight
Reverse the orbit of the earth
And try to turn back time
But there's some things we can never know
The door has closed on why
And though it hurts to let you go
Our time has slipped on by
Our time has slipped on by
Sleeping as water falls
Onto the roof top
Dreaming it won't stop
We lived inside these walls
Damaged and broken
Nothing has changed at all
(At all)
I don't know how to get to you tonight
Reverse the orbit of the earth
And try to turn back time
But there's some things we can never know
The door has closed on why
And though it hurts to let you go
Our time has slipped on by
Our time has slipped on by
Oooooh I
I'm staring at your photograph
But oh, those eyes
Tonight they leave me cold
Oooooh I
I'm drowning in the aftermath
Of why oh why
Why did you have to go
I don't know how to get to you tonight
Reverse the orbit of the earth
And try to turn back time
But there's some things we can never know
The door has closed on why
And though it hurts to let you go
Our time has slipped on by
Our time has slipped on by
Our time has slipped on by
Our time has slipped on by
