When someone you love Leaves you too soon And saying goodbye For the last time Breaks you in two
All you can feel Is that empty space The words in your head That never got said All go to waste
I had a dream about the way things ought to be I saw beauty and pain and love and all that's in between Oh I wouldn't change a single thing God only knows what I can't see
It's here then it's gone Time is an apple on the tree But sometimes life just tastes so strange to me It's bittersweet
The telephone rings And you get the news Everything stops And your heart drops Down to your shoes
And all that you want Is what you can't have Because yesterday's gone And you can't move on But you can't go back
I had a dream about the way things ought to be I saw beauty and pain and love and all that's in between Oh I wouldn't change a single thing God only knows what I can't see
It's here then it's gone Time is an apple on the tree But sometimes life just tastes so strange to me It's bittersweet
It's ups and downs And highs and lows It's runaways who run back home
It's ups and downs And highs and lows It's holding on and letting go
