lyrics

Even now as my breath fades the simple rhythm of my pulse beats
In and out of this feeling that we shared early morning looking down
At your face, a shining story of a castle’s prison cell
You a captive me a warrior fallen out of honor

I was wrong, I am sorry, I forgive you love
I was not strong and I’m so sorry that I let you down
But we were never meant to be, never meant to be

Though we forced what was not right into being I was blinded
Shed my doubt that this bond was something fleeting Was this hope that I had found
Such a fool never learning building castles in my mind
If I could girl I would go back and make us a brand new start

I was wrong, I am sorry, I forgive you love
I was not strong and I’m so sorry that I let you down
Let you down, let you down

Oh how I wanted to hate you
For what I have done to myself
I knew that your words were not true
But I acted the part anyway, I acted the part anyway
I will never compromise again

So much more to this riddle both of us were so misguided
So far gone in our own worlds with our own pasts in our weakness both chose wrong
That’s OK all’s forgiven still waiting for my mind to stop
Placing “could be” in the path of what I’m striving for

I was wrong, I am sorry, I forgive you love
I was not strong and I’m so sorry that I let you down
Even now the dust has settled I can’t forget you love
Even now I have to wonder why we met my love
If we were never meant to be
Things happen for a reason
What was that reason love?
