Years and years ago
Back when I thought I knew it all
Gravity reminded me
How far I had to fall
Once I figured out
What the world was all about
The walls I built to keep things in
Were crumbling with doubt
If nothing lasts forever
Why does it have to hurt so bad
When you're holding on to something
You never really had
If questions go unanswered
It just keeps me moving on
I never wanna miss your birthday parties
I just really wanna see you smiling
Never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I never wanna just leave you guessing
All I really want are things to stay the same
I never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry again
Time keeps moving on
So many friends have come and gone
History reminded me
To know when I was wrong
And all the lessons that I've learned
Like giving up is to get burned
I chased away what followed me
You can't steal what I have earned
If nothing lasts forever
Why does it have to hurt so bad
When you're holding on to something
You never really had
If questions go unanswered
It just keeps me moving on
I never wanna miss your birthday parties
I just really wanna see you smiling
Never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I never wanna just leave you guessing
All I really want are things to stay the same
I never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry again
I tried a million times
Still looking for a sign
That makes it all seem real
It's all too real
I never wanna miss your birthday parties
I just really wanna see you smiling
Never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I never wanna just leave you guessing
All I really want are things to stay the same
I never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry
(Holding onto something you never had, you never had)
I never wanna miss your birthday parties
I just really wanna see you smiling
Never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I never wanna just leave you guessing
All I really want are things to stay the same
I never wanna have to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry again
