lyrics

The first time you held my hand
You asked me if I wouldn’t mind
Now I can’t remember how it felt
But I think about it all the time
Kept your letters but they’re still locked up
With all the songs we sang
Cause nothing can be done to change
That we’re no longer palpable
We haven’t talked for quite some time now
Think I’m going down now
Overboard and out now
I still bring you up in conversation
Even though you’re gone I see your car
And feel my heart in-cave

I’m still doing things with you in mind
My head knows you’re no longer mine
But I’m still patching up what you engraved
You’re engraved
You're the star of all my daydreams
I like to think that you're still thinking of me
We left open the door so, I'm just wondering
I'm just wondering

I'm not sure what it would take
To smoke out my belief in faith
Cause you still creep into my mind
Even when I'm not awake
I thought this choice would make me strong
And relish in my life alone
Yet nothing's made me cherish more
How just one man can feel like home
We haven't talked for quite some time now
Think I'm going down now
Overboard and out now
So I don't think that love's a choice
Tried to leave and found I've only fallen in
There's no escape to us
I keep asking how you've been
And keeping up with mutual friends
But maybe I liked innocence
And it was best
You were best
You’re becoming just a memory
Have you thought of me since January
We left open the door so, I’m just wondering
I’m just wondering

We left open the door
