I met a guy and he was nice. He made me feel nice too.

Verse 1
It was an afternoon meant for goodbyes.
But then I met you and you took me by surprise.
You played off my words, finished my sentences.
You read my mind the first time we met.

Trust a friend to tell a friend, what a girl feels.
The way you made me feel was so unreal.
The smiles and butterflies never went away.
I’m still fighting them up until this day.

Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.

Verse 2
Yet another story ending, I came across you.
Amongst a crowd of strangers, I saw through.
Nudges, gentle shoves, flirty eyes and big smiles.
You made everything seem worth while.

Every moment spent was unforgettable.
Hand around my waist, back against your chest.
If I could look into your eyes once more,
I’d never let you slip away like before.

Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.

Bridge
The goodbye is the hardest to forget.
But I’d go back and do it all over again.

So sit me back on that swing and hold me tight.
Share your world with me under the moonlight.
Search for my weaknesses and fill my empty.
Maybe one day there’ll be a you and me.

Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.

Dragged On.

We speak so formal, it's like we're from different worlds.
A world of your own, that not even I can catch a glimpse at.
Where did we go, I thought we were heading for eternity.
Seems like we're free falling out of what we used to be.

We're not meant to be, even the blind can see that.
You and I never had sparks to begin with.
We rushed in and I gave you the chance to back out.
But now it's been too long, we've dragged on.

I've got no choice but to leave you, the guilt is killing me.
I'm not holding us on the line just for my own peace of mind.
I've been selfish enough and I need to let you go.
No point begging me to stay, I'm running away.

It's for your own good, please take my word once more.
Drop my hands and let me be on my own.
I can't apologize anymore than I have already.
The tracks have changed around, no more going steady.

I can't tell if I'll feel more remorse now or later.
Baby, I regret not treating you like I should have.
Even now, at the lowest state, though it's hard to admit,
I should've treated you better... you deserve more than me.

I've got no choice but to leave you, the guilt is killing me.
I'm not holding us on the line just for my own peace of mind.
I've been selfish enough and I need to let you go.
No point begging me to stay, I'm running away.
