out of reach

everything you used to say to me
just words, like any other word to me
it's over
been over a long time

I tell myself it's really better now this way
see, how we've gone our separate ways
it's over
been over a long time

friends believe that I'm blind
because only inside I like them to say that I know
I'm never sure
the doubts, the shadow's height

'cause sometimes somewhere inside
my confidence lies

love
you didn't save me
'cause I'm wondering inside
our fallen memories

all the truth in the smiles that he gave to me
all those hundreds of miles that he drove for me
all the letters and songs stuck in my head
midnight oil couldn't burn long enough for me
his love just wasn't enough
and faith wasn't free
you were just out of reach

I can't remember the emotion there
that once ran through me like adrenaline
it's common now
I've learned to take my time

oh, why does life seem like an ever-love
the times I want the here and there to count
start over
just start over again

I'll believe that I'm fine
because only inside
I'd like them to say that I know
I'm never sure
the doubts, the shadow's height

'cause sometimes somewhere inside
my confidence lies, ohh

love
sang me an answer
'cause I'm trying to retrieve
the fallen memories

the way you held me so tight, I felt so secure
the strongest wind could blow by, and I would endure
taught me how to stand tall and see everything
now I just feel exposed, feel unprepared
there are no open roads for me anywhere
escape just out of reach

all the truth in the smiles that he gave to me
(all the truth in the smiles that he gave to me)
all the letters and songs are stuck in my head
midnight oil couldn't burn long enough for me
his love just wasn't enough
and faith wasn't free
I've passed now out of reach
