Retreat

You were torn apart
And I was lost in space
We both played our part
Nothing was in place
Shooting stars collide
And I felt burning heat
And I let you slide
Making a retreat
Everything was wrong but it felt right

Time is running out
And we can't turn it back
Can you hear me shout?
Or do I fade to black?
Haunted by your eyes
When I fall asleep
And I realize
That my wounds are deep
I was weak and now I pay the price

How many times I've wondered
Looking back at all the things we've done
Too many signs I've let go
Even though they're brighter than the sun
How many lies I've made up
Praying that I'm not this kind of man
How many lives have passed me by

How many times I've wondered
Looking back at all the things we've done
So many lives that passed me by
