it was an accident

so it was meant to be

when you crossed the floor

and you laid it all down



I can hear it in your voice

I can read it on your face

and I want to believe in it



all the lights are out

and it was deafening

when you crossed the floor

and you held your hands out



you had to make a choice

no more of this bargaining

can we walk away

or will we lay it all down?



I can hear it in your voice

I can read it on your face

and I want to believe in it



it's the life

and I want to hold on

so I pull you closer

and forget where I came from



is it alright

now that we're so gone?

it'll soon be over

and you'll know where you came from



if it was an accident

then it was meant to be

when you crossed the door

and you laid it all out



all the lights were gone

and it was deafening

when you're on the floor

and you're all poured out



and there's nothing

that anybody's sayin'

that's gonna change this time

and I know it



yeah there's nothing

that anybody's sayin'

that's gonna change this night

and I know it
