The day we met comes to mind with a smile
A part of memory lane I havent seen in a while
For its all gone two ships that crashed in the night
Too stubborn to see that we both could be right
Lookin' at the picture of what used to be
And never will again thanks to pride in me
Each smile cuts me more though I can't turn away
Molded to one another but you tossed out the clay
Bridge:
So many mem'ries this night of "might have been"s
Now theyre "never will be"s consigned to the bin
No reason to ask or tears left to cry
Still I look at you and I ask myself why
Chorus:
Why didnt we see that we wanted the same
Why did we fight while playing the game?
Why didnt we know all that we know today
Why didnt we see it coming a mile away
Forever was shattered by one simple text
Why didn't we see all the pain coming next
All that is left of what was meant to be
Is a lonely plea of what we did not see
Asking a question with no answer for me
I wish I could know why I did not see
What it was you needed before it was too late
Maybe I would still have my sideways eight
These questions go both ways you must have a few
Was slamming shut our door the right thing to do
Is there a way back to what we had before
To see only love in one another once more
Bridge:
So many mem'ries this night of "might have been"s
Now theyre "never will be"s consigned to the bin
No reason to ask or tears left to cry
Still I look at you and I ask myself why
Chorus:
Why didnt we see that we wanted the same
Why did we fight while playing the game?
Why didnt we know all that we know today
Why didnt we see it coming a mile away
Forever was shattered by one simple text
Why didn't we see all the pain coming next
All that is left of what was meant to be
Is a lonely plea of what we did not see
