The Cure

If youve got something left to say
Youd better say it now
Anything but "stay"
Just say it now
We know weve reached the end
We just dont know how
"well at least well still be friends"
Yeah one last useless vow...
"there are different ways to live"
Yeah I know that stuff
"other ways to give"
Yeah all that stuff
But holding onto used to be
Is not enough
Memorys not life
And its not love
We should let it all go
It never stays the same
So why does it hurt me like this
When you say that Ive changed?
When you say that Ive aged?
Say Im afraid...
And all the tears you cry
Theyre not tears for me
Regrets about your life
Theyre not regrets for me
It never turns out how you want
Why cant you see?
It all just slips away
It always slips away
Eventually...
So if youve got nothing left to say
Just say goodbye
Turn your face away
And say goodbye
You know weve reached the end
You just dont know why
And you know we cant pretend
After all this time
So just let it all go
Nothing ever stays the same
So why does it hurt me like this
To say that Ive changed?
To say that Ive aged?
Say Im afraid...
But there are long long nights when I lay awake
And I think of what Ive done
Of how Ive thrown my sweetest dreams away
And what Ive really become
And however hard I try
I will always feel regret
However hard I try
I will never forget
I will never forget
