lyrics

Why’d I stay awake for hours with your voice in my head
Did I give you all the power when I laid in your bed
Maybe I’ve been alone too long, but I’m asking, my love
Why’d we make each other happy if it wasn’t enough
Forever was only a whisper
Instrumental Chorus
Why’d we open up these old wounds if they weren’t gonna heal
Why’d we talk about the future it wasn’t for real
Maybe I’ve been alone too long, but I’m asking, my dear
If you didn’t really mean it, why’d you sound so sincere
Forever was only a whisper
Instrumental Chorus
I’ve been alone too long, I know, but whose fault is that
When I gave you everything I owned, I never wanted it back
When I said I promised to be yours did you think those were vows
That I would just say to anyone
Guess we’ll never find out
Why’d I try to place the same bet once the die had been cast
Why’d I tell you all my secrets if we weren’t gonna last
Maybe I’ve been alone too long, but the question remains
Why’d you write me all those love songs if you weren’t gonna stay
Forever was only a whisper
Instrumental Chorus
