lyrics

Sometimes I wish
I could hold on to these moments
And maybe some day
Hear the words you said to me
But you couldn't bring yourself
To say how you felt inside
Instead you watched another day go by

How could you sleep?
How could I see?
How could it be?
You know me
You know me

Sometimes you wish
You could hold on to those moments
And maybe some day
Hear the words they said to you
But they couldn't bring themselves
To say how they felt inside
Instead they watched another day go by

How could they sleep?
How could you see?
How could it be?
They know you
How could you sleep?
How could I see?
How could it be?
You know me
You know me, yeah

Sometimes I wish
I could hold on to those moments
And maybe some day
Hear the words you said
In my memories
Why can't I bring myself
To say how I feel inside?
How can I sit and watch the days go by?

How could you sleep?
How could I see?
How could it be?
You know me
You know me
