Return to Sender

Oh, look it's happened again
I find it harder to pretend.
But I guess I'm far away.
I wouldn't change it.
And by the look in your eye,
I see the feeling has gone away.
Deny it all you want, I know you taste it.
Dancing through life never leads to the answers.
Time takes its time & it's too late
To follow yesterday.

If there's one thing to remember.
You can't say that I didn't care.
I know it's time for you to run away with the pain in your heart tonight.

I know how it's meant to feel.
I've had this happen to me the same.
You didn't stop to think about the danger.
If it's a matter of time.
Then I'll be taking what's mine today.
I'll leave the rest for you
Til you erase it.
Turning back time only leads to frustration.
Time takes its time & it's too late
To follow yesterday.

If there could be a way to follow the stars that fade away
I will celebrate.
The tangled ropes we cut through.
Now I see who you run to?
My dear, it's much too late.
My dreams will carry you away.
