Wish I would've listened to myself
|
You would've thought I'd known better
|
Shouldn't trust my heart this time
|
But the mind, it changes like the weather
|
The scars will fade away, and I may never be the same
|
But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain
|
Never say never
|
|
Now I hear you're back to your old self
|
And I still can't imagine
|
Why you take something good, like love, like us
|
And pretend it never happened
|
Cause you'll look back one day
|
And you'll wish we still had that flame
|
But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain
|
Never say never
|
|
You said you would never let me go
|
You promised me, our love written on the wall
|
Felt so easy but I should've known better
|
To never say never
|
|
Gotta be careful what you give
|
You never know just what you get
|
Who knows, maybe the best hasn't happened yet
|
Some days I still feel the same
|
And my love, it still remains
|
Wish I could start a fire in the pouring rain
|
|
You said you would never let me go
|
You promised me, our love written on the wall
|
Felt so easy but I should've known better
|
To never say never
|
|
Told the whole world that you were all mine
|
You put it in my head that we were doing fine
|
Am I the only one who remembers?
|
It doesn't matter now if you change your mind
|
Cause I won't be around when you finally realize
|
Nothing really lasts forever
|
|
Flames in the sky
|
And there's smoke in my eyes
|
You set me free
|
So don't say you miss me
|
Just don't say you miss me
|
|
You said you would never let me go
|
You promised me, our love written on the wall
|
Felt so easy but I should've known better
|
To never say never
|
|
We should start a fire in the pouring rain
|
|
[Spoken:]
|
I may never understand why you left
|
I guess I just have to accept this is the way it was meant to be
|
Kind of like how I never understood how the ocean just stops at the shore
|
And why it doesn't wash away the land
|
If only someone could hold my heart and my hand
|
And make it feel like you did, and not give up so easy
|
There's no need to be angry, it's okay to be sad
|
I just have to trust there's something better for me out there swirling around in the universe
|
Someone who will believe in themselves as much as I do
|
And never take a wish for granted and always count the stars
|
Looking back, you're always closer than you thought
|
There's no point now in starting something new
|
The heart wants what the heart wants
|
And none of it matters in the end if you can't love someone back
|
Love and truth are whispering, "you can't start a fire in the pouring rain"
|
