(Verse 1)
I've tried so hard to let you go
I still can't say your name out loud
The only thing that helps is time
Can we make yesterday right now?
(Chorus)
Then when we meet again
and I see your face I'll say,
"How did we ever fall apart?"
and all of those people say
they saw the way you loved me.
How did we ever fall apart?
(Verse 2)
No more songs for you, I swear
my pen hits the pad and you appear
This is it, your last premiere
your memories wrote this song for me
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
When that moment comes to mind
The day I feel that I can't fight
(My) perfect picture of you dies
and I sit down and close my eyes
(Chorus)
'Cause I rock the world just to find a little piece I like
I can rock 'til the morning says goodnight
How did we ever fall apart?
(2X)
And when we meet again,
(and) I see your face I'll say,
"How did we ever fall apart?"
