lyrics

it came to me as we sat by the sea
the sand at our feet
was this a dream a lost memory
a perfect scene

time to say goodbye to thoughts about you
talking to myself i’ll live without you
your skin in the rain
it was perfect except for everything
if i saw you again i would let you know
the time we had was spent
as i let you go midnight on the train
it was perfect except for everything

i cannot breathe did everyone know
except for me
as everything is made clear to me
now i can see

time to say goodbye to thoughts about you
talking to myself i’ll live without you
your skin in the rain
it was perfect except for everything
if i saw you again i would let you know
the time we had was spent
as i let you go midnight on the train
it was perfect except for everything

when you said it would be better
when you told me forever
i never thought that i would let you go
i stayed what felt like forever
but it never got better
in the end i would let you go

time to say goodbye to thoughts about you
talking to myself i’ll live without you
your skin in the rain
it was perfect except for everything
if i saw you again i would let you know
the time we had was spent
as i let you go midnight on the train
it was perfect except for everything
