We wanted so much more then these lives we are leading,

But I can’t stop this pain now my insides are bleeding,

Your scent is enough to make everything seem better

If only I had the courage I would send you this letter,

Your eyes seem like magic I can’t look right at them,

For fear of my heart, it feels like it shattered

Why do we live these lives we are told to

The times we had just seem to be so few

There’s nothing left now but memories and heartaches

I wish you were here; I’d undo these mistakes

Remember the first time, the first time I kissed you

I was so nervous, can’t believe how much I liked you

The money I spent on taxies to your place

The times that were spent I wish I could retrace

We got caught by your dad when I wasn’t suppose to be there

Under the blanket on top of that chair

We always had little names for each other

You were the only one for me there was never another

Why do we live these lives we are told to

The times we had just seem to be so few

There’s nothing left now but memories and heartaches

I wish you were here; I’d undo these mistakes

We started to fight and things starting changing

I’m sorry for the words that we were exchanging

You hurt me so bad with the guys that you’d meet

You tore out my heart and you taught me deceit

I still can’t believe that you asked me to stay

When you went outside that night and with him went astray

Your mouth said you loved me but your eyes said goodbye

It was so hard to just lay there while inside I died

Why do we live these lives we are told to

The times we had just seem to be so few

There’s nothing left now but memories and heartaches

I wish you were here; I’d undo these mistakes

I loved you so much even after you left me

I left you a letter I wrote on a cd

I tried to undo what I knew I had broken

But you had someone else and my love went unspoken

I thought that you’d always be my best friend

But when he came along he brought me the end

Why do we live these lives we are told to

The times we had just seem to be so few

There’s nothing left now but memories and heartaches

I wish you were here; I’d undo these mistakes

Why do we live these lives we are told to

Why do we give up on feelings so true

In the end all the times we didn’t even try

You left me here without even a goodbye
