lyrics

An innocent yard left behind, change of plans we crossed the line
Who thought the fields out of town would make me lose you by my side
You said "come on I dare you to"
I said "there's no way that's what I would do"
And then the sun dipped behind the trees and the shadow cast a darkness over everything

This could have been no fault of mine
I was not the cause of this
The thought of which would cross my mind
It's not supposed to end like this

So sorry that I lost you babe, I turned a moment and you're gone
So sorry that I lost you baby, I turned a moment and forgot

Run back and wonder what could have happened here
A moment ago you're beside me but now you're somewhere else my dear
It's colder in the evenings ever since you disappeared
Feels like ages since I've seen you, I've heard you, or been near you

In the words of your father, "you grew up too damn fast"
Think back now to all those years and retrace your footsteps
I know you didn't parish, I know that you're still holding on somewhere, somewhere out there

Oh I've grown to regret standing here once again
No clear path to take while I find my footing
Who's heart will break?
A life without knowing or knowing again
My love's deeper than my life in sorrow

I've never felt quite like this
Running from a feeling and I don't know what it is
Will I see you again if I can't escape from this hell?

And I want you to know that I am the hunter and you are the hunted
If I lost you once I won't do it again

I've never felt quite like this
Running from a feeling and I don't know what it is
"Will I see you again?"
"Can't you see me right here?"
The path that you take is the path that will lead you right you fate
We wouldn't have to make up for all these years if I'd just accepted your dare
