I Drove Away
Perfection, Reaction, Digression
All in a year or two
Back when I lost you
If wasn't you, it was me
Who made me bleed
I took the actions
It was only my own fault
Two years ago, I saw you
Drove an hour or two
Just to give a letter to you
I knocked on your door, what a big surprise
Just another stupid kid
Tell me now who was I kidding?
I thought to myself
This is my last shot,
Better make it last
Better make a lasting impression
You read the note
I gave you flowers
What a cheap surprise
Tell me now who was I kidding?
I let you go, I drove away
Hoping that another day
I would hold you in my arms again
It started to rain, I felt so much pain
There were tears in my eyes
Lightning in the skies
Like the one that struck
Just 50 feet from my heart
We talked a while, you had a smile
But you had found someone else
Something I couldn't do a thing about
He left you, he made you cry
Never drove an hour
Just to bring you flowers
With a huge storm just brewing in the sky
I let you go, I drove away
Hoping that another day
I would hold you in my arms again
It started to rain, I felt so much pain
There were tears in my eyes
Lightning in the skies
Like the one that struck
Just 50 feet from my heart
Too bad these things never go as planned
I loved you, I love you
Things never changed for me since that night
I drove two hours, just to see you for one
That night a new life had begun
I lost you myself, time to pay the consequence
I let you go, I drove away
Hoping that another day
I would hold you in my arms again
It started to rain, I felt so much pain
There were tears in my eyes
Lightning in the skies
Like the one that struck
Just 50 feet from my heart
Too bad it never struck me
I would have died, a sacrafice
You'd give me flowers
As I fall into the ground
Sleeping so sound
You would have never known I still care
But I let you go, yea I drove away
It was such a mistake, I should have stayed
I want to hold you in my arms yet again
Can we make plans? Make this happen...
There are still tears here in my eyes
That is no suprise, I drove away
There was lightening in the skies
I am glad it was 50 feet away
'Cause there wouldn't be today
There'd be no chance to make this right again
i was right
