Something Gained

I believe in second chances...but I believe
In quitting while you’re still ahead
I never liked to watch the curtain fall
So I leave every show before it ends

Don’t come back now that you’re gone
Spent all this time moving on

Can’t we just appreciate that people change
Hard to see it when you’re young
You don’t know what’s right until you’ve gone wrong
We only grow if we let go
When it’s time to rearrange
There’s something lost but always something gained

Your apartment was a hideaway until it turned
From an oasis to a war
I guess you don’t remember it that way
‘Cause you keep begging me to come back for more

Hearts will break and bridges burn
They’re not mistakes, they’re lessons learned

Can’t we just appreciate that people change
Hard to see it when you’re young
You don’t know what’s right until you’ve gone wrong
We only grow if we let go
When it’s time to rearrange
There’s something lost but always something…

Good while it was good
Something you loved but you should
Let it go walk away
And tell yourself you’ll be ok

‘Cause I believe in second chances...and I believe
In quitting while you’re still ahead

Can’t we just appreciate that we’ve changed
Couldn’t see it we were young
Didn’t know what’s right till it all went wrong
Now we’ve grown, and I’ve let you go
Don’t be scared to rearrange
There’s something lost but always something gained
