I caught you walk through the door
with a look too elegant to ignore.
I dropped my eyes to the floor
and I guess, I regressed to before.
The colors blurred out the lines
and I thought of nothing to say,
and now you've moved away
with a past tense shading your name.
Your eyes always loosen up the ends.
Colliding where we are to where we begin.
Oh, where we begin.
I quenched the fire inside
and I felt your hand in mine.
I miss the way that it felt.
It's not part of His grand design.
But you are just a face;
a whisper of past and life.
Yes, you are just a phase.
So it's pointless for me to fight.
Your eyes always loosen up the ends.
Colliding where we are to where we begin.
Your eyes always loosen up the ends.
Colliding where we are to where we begin.
You took me for a ride.
Losing you meant everything.
I knew we'd moved away,
and the lack of your touch was my pain.
I watched you walk out the door,
and I knew I'd lost my girl.
I dropped my eyes to the floor,
and I guess, I regressed to before.
Your eyes always loosen up the ends.
Colliding where we are to where we begin.
Your eyes always loosen up the ends.
Colliding where we are to where we begin.
