lyrics

When I look back
I can see my mistake
I'll put it all away
These unwanted thoughts
I hope I forget
All of this just the same
They saw me hovering
At the top of a parking lot
Ah ah
When I look back
I hear the soundtrack
In our movie
They played songs about love
I got too involved
I made too many plans
Wanted to save you when
Your parents locked you up
They locked you up
And I saw you in the window
Your voice on the phone
I'm in this with you
I'm not going home
And I tried my best
Being there to catch you
Is the happiest
I've ever been
But in the end
Who's going to catch me
Catch me
I can't recall
The images of today
The colors all fade to gray
There's nothing left
But the memories
Where I touch you so carefully
Like a sculpture of glass
You slipped through my hands
Ah ah
So when you turn the lights out
Dream of what you love
And wrapped in those uncomplicated shadows
You will never find yourself alone
You won't
Must it be
Oh, must it be
Answer me
Must it be
It must be
It must be
