So Why Should I Take Your Hand

When You Can't Promise Happy Endings?



It's Starting To Get Old

That Story Yet Untold

Reflect Before We Walk Into

What We Already Know

Won't Be So Easy

Looking Back At High School Drama

Didn't Try To Fix What We Thought Were Problems

Done With Writing Empty Letters

Is There No Other Way?



Staring At Your Reflection Every Day

Can Make Or Break My Heart Away

When You Won't Listen To What's Hard For Me To Say

Those Tear Stained Eyes Can Make Me Feel So Sad

And Once Again We're Further Away From What We Never Had



So Why Should I Take Your Hand When You Can't Promise Happy Endings?

Just Run Away With So Much Left To Share

It's Just Not Enough

When We're So Much More Than Friends

We're Much Too Young To Throw Away Our Cares



There's No Sense In Regretting What's Been Said In Our Yesterdays

We Can't Take Back What's Done

We Can Look Ahead

And I Would Walk So Much Further Just To Know What I'm Doing Here

And There's No End To What I'd Give To Know Just What You Meant When You Said

How Can I Feel Alive When We Can't Help But Break Our Backs Just To Survive?

Is This Another Time We Can't Control Our Lives?
