Closing Time
Heartache and Redemption: Embracing Love's Second Chance
Lyrics
I was a fool to say it was over
I regret declaring that our relationship was finished.
I was concerned with my pride
I was preoccupied with my own pride.
The words are crazy and fall out of place
The words I spoke were irrational and out of order.
From this heartache I can't hide
I cannot escape the pain of this heartbreak.
I hear your name in slow conversation
I hear your name mentioned slowly in conversations.
I see your face in the crowd
I can spot your face in a crowd.
My heart desires so many things
My heart craves many things, conflicting with my pride.
That my pride just can't allow
There are desires in my heart that my pride prevents me from acknowledging.
I'd close down this heart tonight
I would shut down my emotions tonight.
Leave without a fight
I would leave without putting up a fight.
Say goodbye to your sweet memory
I would bid farewell to the sweet memories of our time together.
If I can lie in your arms tonight
If I can deceive myself and be in your arms tonight.
If I can lie in your arms tonight
Repetition of the desire to be in your arms tonight.
Was I the fool to think you would see me
Was I foolish to expect you to notice me?
When all I wanted was you
All I truly wanted was you.
Then I saw your eyes go through those changes
I observed changes in your eyes and wondered how you perceived things.
And wondered how you knew
I questioned how you were aware of certain things.
I hear your name in slow conversation
I hear your name in slow conversation (repeated).
I close my eyes and knew
I shut my eyes and realized.
I'd never find a way to deceive you
I accepted that deceiving you was not an option.
I just can't let you go
I cannot let you go.
I'd close down this heart tonight
I would shut down my emotions tonight (repeated).
Leave without a fight
I would leave without putting up a fight (repeated).
Say goodbye to your sweet memory
I would bid farewell to the sweet memories of our time together (repeated).
If I can lie in your arms tonight
If I can deceive myself and be in your arms tonight (repeated).
If I can lie in your arms tonight
Repetition of the desire to be in your arms tonight (repeated).
I was a fool to say it was over
I regret declaring that our relationship was finished (repeated).
