VERSE 1

           
In my mind I can't imagine
                
How the world has come to me
                
And in my heart I can't detach
                   
The feeling that it couldn't be


PRE-CHORUS 1

                       
And no, I don't want to kiss you
                            
Don't want to miss you if you go away
                          
I'll fake it don't want to make it
                          
Don't want to feel another way


CHORUS

                
Once you had a love and you let it go
                 
Now you know what matters
                 
Once you had a dream that you realized
                    
But do you know what matters


VERSE 2

                        
Cause you're alone in the sense that I am
                 
But you know we're not alone
                    
And we aren't perfect nothing is
               
But try to understand


PRE-CHORUS 2

                               
The moment leaves you without a vision
                        
Can't see decisions being made
                             
I can describe the picture I'm painting
                      
It's not amazing when you know


CHORUS

                
Once you had a love and you let it go
                 
Now you know what matters
                 
Once you had a dream that you realized
                    
But do you know what matters



BRIDGE

                         
To leave your feelings in the past
                                 
Part of it is to know you can't go back for free

PRE-CHORUS 3

                       
And no, I don't want to kiss you
                            
Don't want to miss you if you go away
                          
I'll fake it don't want to make it
                          
Don't want to feel another way


CHORUS

                
Once you had a love and you let it go
                 
Now you know what matters
                 
Once you had a dream that you realized
                    
But do you know what matters


BRIDGE

                         
To leave your feelings in the past
                                    
Part of it is to know you can't go back for free
