"Never Be Back"

You and I for so many years
It's just not that easy to pack up the tears and the pain
And forget
We just can't end it when I'm not through with it yet
We build our walls and divide
And it's so much simpler when we don't have to decide
Who is right... as if it matters
There's never any doors and we've burned all our letters

But it's wrong
To live life without you
It's gone, I know it's gone
But I can't let it go
Knowing it will never be back

You and I through so many fights
And it's not about the one that we had the other night
It's the ones we've never had
When you close your eyes to me and pretend you're not mad

What if this is our one chance?
What if it's a test
And we failed?
We failed

You and I for so many years
It's just not that easy
To pack up the tears and the pain
And forget
We just can't end it when I'm not through with it yet

And it's wrong
To live life without you
It's gone, I know it's gone
But I can't let it go
Knowing it will never
Well I can't let it go
Knowing it will never
I can't let it go
Knowing it will never be back
Knowing it will never be back
