you say you never look back on life

a book you've already read 

the pages blew by and so you did 

so you did 

you'd never look back for me

though I might be here waiting

it was time to go and so you did

so you did 



oh, come see why i've fallen 

and where i've come back from



and stay to understand my name

you know i would for you 



all i ever did was hear you talk 

about making it up to me 

i know it's too late,

but you never 

did never did

i guess i'm holding out for life 

just have to wait and see

forgive you is something that i never did

never did 



chorus 



you know that between these lifetimes 

the sun is hovering high for you

and there i am holding up the sky 

one last good-bye, 

truth for true 

you know i would for you 



oh, come see why i've fallen 

and where i've come back from 

and stay to understand my name

you know i would for you



you know i would for you
