lyrics
Let me tell you a story once upon a time there was this girl who fell from the sky
She fell straight in my arms, you see, she looked in my eyes, said "with you I'll be"
3 years since that accident, every morning I wake up to her scent
Thinking how lucky can a man be? Clueless of things we cannot see
So I'll jump to the end skip the boring stuff, the moral of this story is there can be too much
Of a good thing that will never last, something you'll never want in your past
So I'll kiss you goodbye and walk out of the door trying to look up but can only see the floor
You'll question my intentions and what are we, but you'll realize
I'll never be close to what you want, I'll never be close to what you need
It takes a lot to say goodbye, and you know what, maybe that's why
I'm sitting in this cold room all alone singing a song that you'll never know
This room is starting to slowly fill up with memories so heavy that I can't get up
I think maybe this is the end, it's getting so hard to pretend...
So I'll kiss you goodbye and walk out of your life even though I know you'd make the perfect wife
But in a few years you'll thank me, you'll see reality
I'll never be close to what you want
I'll never be close to what you need
I know I promised you I'd write you a song, you'd always ask "how's it coming along?"
I'd say with little hesistance that you won't be disappointed
But nothing comes out just tears made of dust cause deep in my heart I know I'm not enough
And no words on a page could ever do justice to the beauty you bring to this world
To the happiness you've made me feel
So I'll kiss you goodbye and hold my head high cause all that we had was never a lie
But in a few years you'll thank me, you'll see reality
I'll never be close to what you want
I'll never be close to what you need
She fell straight in my arms, you see, she looked in my eyes, said "with you I'll be"
3 years since that accident, every morning I wake up to her scent
Thinking how lucky can a man be? Clueless of things we cannot see
So I'll jump to the end skip the boring stuff, the moral of this story is there can be too much
Of a good thing that will never last, something you'll never want in your past
So I'll kiss you goodbye and walk out of the door trying to look up but can only see the floor
You'll question my intentions and what are we, but you'll realize
I'll never be close to what you want, I'll never be close to what you need
It takes a lot to say goodbye, and you know what, maybe that's why
I'm sitting in this cold room all alone singing a song that you'll never know
This room is starting to slowly fill up with memories so heavy that I can't get up
I think maybe this is the end, it's getting so hard to pretend...
So I'll kiss you goodbye and walk out of your life even though I know you'd make the perfect wife
But in a few years you'll thank me, you'll see reality
I'll never be close to what you want
I'll never be close to what you need
I know I promised you I'd write you a song, you'd always ask "how's it coming along?"

So I'll kiss you goodbye and hold my head high cause all that we had was never a lie
But in a few years you'll thank me, you'll see reality
I'll never be close to what you want
I'll never be close to what you need
