In my mind I can't imagine

How the world has come to me

And in my heart I can't detach

The feeling that it couldn't be



And no, I don't want to kiss you

Don't want to miss you if you go away

I'll fake it don't want to make it 

Don't want to feel another way



Once you had a love and you let it go

Now you know what matters

Once you had a dream that you realized

But do you know what matters



'Cause you're alone in the sense that I am

But you know we're not alone

And we aren't perfect nothing is

But try to understand

The moment leaves you without a vision

Can't see decisions being made

I can describe the picture I'm painting

It's not amazing when you know



Once you had a love and you let it go

Now you know what matters

Once you had a dream that you realized

But do you know what matters



To leave your feelings in the past

Part of it is you know you can't go back for free



And no, I don't want to kiss you

Don't want to miss you if you go away

I'll fake it don't want to make it 

Don't want to feel another way



Once you had a love and you let it go

Now you know what matters

Once you had a dream that you realized

But do you know what matters



To leave your feelings in the past

Part of it is you know you can't go back for free



What matters...
