Meeting him was fate, becoming his friend was a choice, falling in love was a mistake, him leaving was destiny, us becoming strangers again was a tragedy

〜VERSE 1〜

You buried me somewhere in the depths of your mind

So tell me, do you ever visit my grave at night

Do you hear the shackles of ghosts as they fly

You might've slayed your demons

but you'll never catch mine

There were so many things we left unsaid

You left me like an open book with pages still unread

Do you ever miss me or am I just a regret

If you could go back in time

would you stay away instead

〜PRE-CHORUS〜

We didn't even get to say goodbye

Why didn't you give us a chance to try

〜CHORUS〜

Maybe it's this cruel world we live in

Or the currents of destiny that keep changing

You came in and swept me off my feet

And then the riptide pulled me down from underneath

We rose and fell like the ocean tides

The sea now carries the salty tears I've cried

I guess people come and go like waves

But I really wished you could've stayed

〜VERSE 2 〜

At the start, you and I sped down the road so fast

But it wasn't long before we ran out of train tracks

I should've known that the thrill never lasts

Cause as soon as you started looking back

I knew we were going down a broken path

〜PRE-CHORUS〜

We didn't even get to say goodbye

Why didn't you give us a chance to try

〜CHORUS〜

Maybe it's this cruel world we live in

Or the currents of destiny that keep changing

You came in and swept me off my feet

And then the riptide pulled me down from underneath

We rose and fell like the ocean tides

The sea now carries the salty tears I've cried

I guess people come and go like waves

But I really wished you could've stayed

〜BRIDGE〜

Someone said that you shouldn't let go when it comes to love

Maybe that's why it was so hard for me to give you up

Cause the harder you love, the more it hurts 

But the way you gave up and stepped on my worth

You abandoned me out in the desert 

with no intention to return

〜CHORUS〜

Maybe it's this cruel world we live in

Or the currents of destiny that keep changing

You dropped a pebble into my waters

But the rippling affects were so much stronger

We rose and fell like the ocean tides

The sea now carries the salty tears I've cried

I guess people come and go like waves

But I still wished you could've stayed

〜OUTRO〜

Cause for you I would've waited

Turned the tides to bring you back to my side

And swam against the currents of destiny

Just to bring you back home to me
