Verse 1:
Jealousies
Misconceptions
Opinions
Outside advice

Fears of getting hurt again
Doubt in your eyes
Why do we listen?
Why do we care?
We almost made it there

Chorus:
We came so close to forever
Now what's done is done
There'll be no resurrection
How can life break its promises
I even made this promise to myself
So close but never there again

Verse 2:
Once a king
Now a prince
One step lower
On the list

It's not plain and simple innocence
'Cause we've been through more now
And it's left its scars somehow

CHORUS

Oh, oh, oh now what's done is done
hmmm...
It's close so close but never there again
oh, oh, oh
