I don't want to think back to those days
But I guess that I'll revisit them to put them all away
In all the things I knew we'd never be
I hoped that you would turn around, that one day you would see
Instead you plugged your ears and turned on this
Think of all these wasted months, of everything you've missed
I told you then you'd long to hear those words
But you hid them in the past, so I guess they went unheard
Slipped through my hands and left me, but I never turned around
You went off in your little world, but look at what you've found
I don't need a reason 'cause there's no need to react
You can keep on moving forward, but I'm never going back
Oh I'm never going back
I always tend to think of what went wrong
But things happened for a reason and we learnt to move along
To find a space with lip syncs in the dark
From the feelings left unfinished to the beating of your heart
I'd promised you I meant the things I said
You swear you kept the thoughts there, but they all escaped your head
Though no one knew the words would make you cry
You think of what you did and never stopped to wonder why
You kissed me hard and left me, but I never turned around
You went off in your little world, but look at what you've found
I don't need a reason 'cause there's no need to react
You can keep on moving forward, but I'm never going back
Oh I'm never going back
You copied down the phrases, all the words I wrote for you
At the time they all seemed meaningless, but now they're dying to break through
They leave the page and make a way for you to find release
But what's to say when interest wains and time for love has ceased?
I think that I gave up on you, when you gave up on me
I chose to walk away from you, because I had to leave
You kissed me hard and left me, but I never turned around
You went off in your little world, but look at what you've found
I don't need a reason 'cause there's no need to react
You can keep on moving forward, but I'm never going back
Oh I'm never going back
Now you have the words I wrote, but they're lost after the fact
I chose to walk away from you and now there ain't no going back
