Roses & Regrets (Acoustic)

A moment I've waited for for months
Standing on my doorstep with roses and regrets
I was losing hope, but they say if they're the one
They'll come back

Enchanting smile swept me off of my feet
Fairy tales aren't true, but I'd believe
I must be dreaming, 'cause things like this happen on a screen
They don't happen to me

I should really run just like you did
Leave you all alone wondering where I've been
Won't tell you where to find me
Won't wake you when I go
But I'd hate to make you feel that alone

Something keeps pulling me back
Maybe its your gravity, or maybe its the fact
People only want what they can't have
And I just wish there was a way to make it last

We won't be eternal, not even in a dream
It's been a long time coming, say you've waited for me
And I can do better, I know that I could
but something 'bout relighting this old flame has me hooked

Its dragging me down and I know it
One day I'll wake up and the air will feel cold
The rain will start coming down
From my eyes and from the clouds, and
You'll be nowhere to be found

Something keeps pulling you back
And my optimism will blind me from the fact
You only want what you can't have
I know one day you'll leave, and you won't come back

Oh, oh
Ooo, ooo

Something keeps holding me back
I know that I know better, but I'm stuck on the fact
You told me forever, a promise never kept
So I'll keep dreaming of you showing up
With roses and regrets
