There's a time I remember well
when it seemed I had it all.
Then you told me that it couldn't work,
and everything began to fall.
I think about the times we had
and I wonder what was real.
The only thing that matters now
is the way you made me feel.

I'll leave you for now,
like you left me long ago.
I hope you know that you're the one
who made me feel like I could fly.
Still everytime that life decides
to bring you back around.
I feel my feet lift gently off the ground.

I've been thinkin all night long
and it's finally getting through.
All my tears don't drown the flame
that burns my soul for you.
I know I shouldn't stay here
knowing you don't feel the same.
I should walk away right now
instead of playing into that game.

I'll leave you for now,
like you left me long ago.
I hope you know that you're the one
who made me feel like I could fly.
Still everytime that life decides
to bring you back around.
I feel my feet lift gently off the ground.

You're the ringing in my ears.
You own a river of my tears.
You're the reason for my fears,
but I still need you
and everytime that life decides
to bring you back around.
I feel my feet lift gently off the ground.
