It might have been the things we mean but never say
the movement of your hands
the trust I can’t betray
when your eyes are meeting mine and you tend to look away
it might have been her guilt
her sense of right and wrong
her voice and how it sounded through a microphone
she was born with a name that could start off a song
I always thought that I would hold the losing end
that you’d find something better as soon as life began to move
it took her just one second
what I couldn’t solve for years
I always thought that l’d remain the hopeless one
that you’d find something better
when the ground began to move
it took her just one second
what I couldn’t solve for years
what we couldn’t solve for years
it might have been the things we said
but never meant
it might have been an accident, but then again
accidents will happen
if you're only letting them
and l’m not sure I want you to believe in me
I believe forgiveness comes too easily
and now your need for comfort
is wearing on my knees
I always thought that I would hold the losing end
that you’d find something better as soon as life began to move
it took her just one second
what I couldn’t solve for years
I always thought that l’d remain the hopeless one
that you'd find something better
now as life begun to move
it took her just one second
what I couldn’t solve for years
what we couldn’t solve for years
a misprint on her T-shirt made me look her way
reminded me of something I forgot to say
her eyes weren’t even pretty
but they didn’t look away
