lyrics

Nobody can tell just how you’re really doing
What you’re really feeling, what you’re really thinking
They can take a guess and most-likely be wrong
But it’s all just a part of what we have in common
Who would ever tell you, uh I’m doing shitty
I don’t think I’m good enough, I don’t think I’m pretty
I can take a lot of criticism from them
I can take a lot of everything that’s coming

Hey, my time has come and gone
And all that’s left is this song
So make it what you need
Cuz we won’t be here long

You can’t relive this, all the things you’re gonna miss
Like that first time that we met and like our first kiss
You can never go back there, you can never turn back time
When it all was sacred, we thought we’d make it
When all your dreams were mine

All your friends care about how you are doing
About what you’re thinking, about how you’re feeling
They just want what’s best for you but don’t know what to do
When you disappear for so long

So, another Summer’s coming soon
At least you’ve got this tune
So make it what you need
Cuz it’s all over soon

You can’t relive this, all the things you’re gonna miss
Like that first time that we met and like our first kiss
You can never go back there, you can never turn back time
When it all was sacred, we thought we’d make it
When all your dreams were mine
