Verse

I walked away
Cause I fell out of like
Not love
I'm thinking of you now
Where I stand
Waiting for the perfect plan
To spark a flame

Chorus

So fragile are the lives we lead
So simple are the words we need
So few and yet so far between
What you want and really need

Verse

I sleep alone
Better that than lie in bed
I'm only lonely now
For in time
I will find the one I seek
When I'm done searching

Chorus
Bridge

If you think that it's been easy
You don't know how much it grieves me

Verse

Though time can heal
I don't need an hourglass
To feel I'm mending
I see the signs
Soon I will be on my knees
Starting over
