Now you're etched in the air
You're a perfect silhouette
And I can't undo it
Easy to remember
Much harder to forget

Now we lie in each other's arms
You are mine and I am yours
But what happens when we open our hearts?
Something irreconcilable
Something irreconcilable

Time goes on and everything changes
Don't let the light in
Hoping that it hasn't faded
Don't let the light in

Whenever you look down
The chances slip away
Hold me here and I won't leave
Not through the mist or through the rain
You never understood

Forever the fool now
I promised you everything
I wish that I could have been
I tried and I tried to make it clear
You never understood

But tonight you won't worry bout the things that you say
You know when you do can't stand yourself
Think of all the things you'll miss and leave behind
If only you could stay and figure it out

Time goes on and everything changes
Don't let the light in
Hoping that it hasn't faded
Don't let the light in
Don't let the light in
Don't let the light in
Don't let the light in
Don't let the light in
