Story behind the song
I fell in love with a high-school friend and she apparently didn't feel the same way. That's the short version anyway. =)
Lyrics
It seemed so easy to let it go
To slide along and smile and look the other way
It seemed so easy; I made it so
Cause I didn’t know what to do, I didn’t know what to say
And now the time is gone
The moment has passed and right becomes wrong
And it doesn’t matter now
Or does it still matter some way, somehow?
Chorus:
Well if life was like a fairy tale
We’d have come so far for nothing
Cause happy ever after
Is when the story ends
So I hope that you go far
And when the time comes to listen
I’ll be there if you want me
I’m right here waiting
For you
I lie here on my bed; I’m all alone
Thinking back to what used to be, about the times we had
But now I’m sitting in the dark, I wait by the phone
Well it didn’t ring today, guess that’s just too bad
And now those times are gone
The words are clear but you can’t hear the song
And it doesn’t matter now
You can’t even see me, so I don’t need to take a bow
Chorus
So tell me what you think of love
Is it just another dream, another fairy tale?
Tell me how you think it comes
Kiss the frog, meet the prince and wear the veil?
Well now that time is gone
Is it the way it should be, or is it wrong?
And does it matter now?
To say love’s more than a feeling, is that allowed?
Chorus
