And I held your photograph that night,
And it all seemed so clear.
Just yesterday when we were young,
And you were near.
Whatever happened to what we could be?

She's the girl you notice from across the room.
She speaks and I can't help but smile.
I'd tell her that I would do anything,
Just to hold her awhile.
I long to hold her again.

Now i'm falling from heaven without a rope,
Lost without my light.
Fighting it all with a glimmer of hope,
So she'll say it's going to be all right.
Whatever happened to what we could be?

We're older now. I wanted you to stay.
I would give anything so that it can be.

She's the girl that I noticed from across the room.
She spoke and I smiled.
I told her I would do anything,
Now she's out of my life.
I'll never hold her again.

We're older now. I wanted you to stay.
I gave it everything, and still it can't be.

But it's going to take time,
So don't give it away.
Breathe.
