lyrics

This year has come and gone so fast
Too many chanes I've let pass
Now all I have are these memories
Left haunting me
Left taunting me
It's the way the sun rises over the hills
How I hear your voice
Singing softly still

And you
You were
The reason I came home
And you
You were
All I've ever known

This passion
We share
Was uncomparable
To anything I have ever felt
Now this heart I own
Is cold as stone
Those were the days
We ran through
Rampant
Not holding on
But always looking back
So now I tread Loosely
Could this
Weary feeling come to pass
Or has my
Chance faded away

Everything I wanted in life
Was right here
Right in front of my eyes
And you ripped it out
This heart of glass
And I take it back
Every jealous word
Every subtle kiss
And please
Don't leave me here
I know
I can't live like this


And you
You were
The reason I came home
And you
You were
All I've ever known


Sunsets
Car wrecks
All comes to and end
On the final word of the final page
My story begins
It's the way you smile
I can hear your laugh
It's the clarity
With which I recall the past
Some days wake to find myself alone
And I wonder where you went
And the panic ensues
It's all that I have left
I'm sorry I bailed
I really wanted to stay
You were my way home
And I needed it that way

And you
You were
The reason I came home
And you
You were
All I've ever known
And you
You were
The reason I came home
And you
You were
All I've ever known
