I Know, I’ve got better
Better things to do, then think of this
I replay conversations, situations
I’m dying to change, I’m dying to know
Where I stand, cause you’ve got me
In the palm of your hand
When’s the right time, if there’s a right time
I’ve never felt so wrong since I met you
On the border, never getting closer
Better to never have met, I can’t ignore you now
A blessing, dressed up in disguise
I was never yours - you were never mine
Cursed is, unrequited love, never had the chance
To be hurt, to be good, good enough
There’s no plan, cause she’s got you
In the palm of her hand
When’s the right time, if there’s a right time
I’ve never felt so wrong since I met you
On the border, never getting closer
Better to never have met, I can’t ignore you
You know, it’s a struggle to let this go
But it’s time, I know – I’ve gotta let go, I’ve gotta let go
I couldn’t move, when you came my way
I never heard, what I wanted to hear
I wanted to hear you say, anything but everything that finally came
You couldn’t move, but you wanted to run
A difficult spot, I put you on, I wanted to know
I wanted to know how this, could go, go
When’s the right time, if there’s a right time
I’ve never felt so wrong since I’ve met you
On the border never getting closer
Better to never have met I can’t ignore you
You know, it’s a struggle to let this go
So much time, running in my mind, can’t you see
Can’t you even tell me that you know
It’s a struggle to let this go, but it’s time I know
I’ve gotta let go, I’ve gotta let go – I let you go
