Her and I

They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
Well in some cases
I think they're right.

You and I
No matter how hard we try
Speaking nicely
Becomes a fight.

I know that I haven't lived as long
And I know I'm foolish not wise
I know I see things differently
Because I'm not looking through your eyes

I know our gazes don't meet
And we've both got broken hearts
But no matter how we put it
Our words still fly like darts.

Yours are filled with poison
And mine are feather light
I wish things could change here
But where's the sun at night?

You've been too close
When I needed space
And too far
When I ached alone
So tell me oh my dear
Is your heart made of stone?

I know the answer to that
But not asking for myself
Sooner or later, you have to forgive
And leave the past up on the shelf.

This life will end one day
You cannot stop that fact
Are you going to fight that?
You'll only end up flat...

There is no mistaking
We'll do always what we can
But sometimes it's just better
If we leave it where it stands.
