Too Long

Somber celebrations
Over distant conversations I remember clearly
I been speaking to the past
But I don't think it hears me
And I do this yearly
It's the only way I've found that I can keep you near me
Eyes teary from the days I cried
Mind weary from the ways I tried to hold the line
I'm feeling like my soul is working overtime
Broken hearts should heal with time
But I'm not over mine
I wonder if that quotes a lie
And I wonder if you know the truth
That I'm coping and I'm slowly getting over you
Somehow I feel thats what I'm supposed to do
But at the same time I'm feeling like its overdue

Am I supposed to move on
Cause I been holding on, but I mean how long is too long
How long is too long
Now that you gone
Am I supposed to move on
Cause I been holding on, but I mean how long is too long
How long is too long
Now that you gone

Second chances few and far between
Writing letters I'm certain you've probably never seen
And never want to
It's the memories you never want that seem to haunt you
Arguments about the petty things that tease and taunt you
Silly conversations
Simple statements misconstrued becoming complications
Setting fires like we not concerned
Building bridges just to watch 'em burn
It's amazing how we never learn
And it's a shame I found the saying true
It's hard to know what something's worth until the day you lose
So many things I want to say to you
So many times I failed to prove the things I tried to prove
And it's a shame I found the saying true
It's hard to know what something's worth until the day you lose
So many things I want to say to you
So many times I failed to prove the things I tried to prove

Am I supposed to move on
Cause I been holding on, but I mean how long is too long
How long is too long
Now that you gone
Am I supposed to move on
Cause I been holding on, but I mean how long is too long
How long is too long
Now that you gone
