In the mirror I saw your face
looking back at mine
another reflection from another time
don’t you know you can slip away
through a window in the sky
and I would’ve given anything
if you would’ve only tried

You could pull me into your eyes
when words escaped me
I tried to read your mind, the smile you hid behind
I would have followed you anywhere
to find my head and my heart
and I would’ve given anything
but it all fell apart

And I would’ve given anything
just to make you mine
I would’ve done anything
but you couldn’t spare the time
oh no no no

Promises you couldn’t keep
lay at your feet and broken
for the times that I would weep
for what went unspoken
in the end there’s not a lot to say
for a love in abyss
and you never knew me anyway
did I ever exist

And I would’ve given everything
just to make you mine
I would’ve done anything
but you couldn’t spare the time
oh no no no

So we went our separate ways
led separate lives
the embers disappeared
along with the fire
someone said there’s a price to pay
for what you never forget
but I’m too late for loving you
and too tired for regret.
