Often the right way is blocked by the wrong person.

I'm not the man you thought I could be
I'm not the man you thought you'd need
I'm sorry to disappoint such a beautiful face
but it was never right to wait for this phase

an awkward puzzle of confusion -
hoping for some kind of physical fusion
I never wanted to break the silence
and place the world in this awful tense

if only to be back within your warm light
I'd lie to bring myself back to that night
but that lie would eat me inside and
burn up the heart held in your hand

unknown to both you and I
the world will go on tonight
that's the just the way it always is
when moments die, ceasing to exist

so put that one away in your bank
save it for when you empty the tank
take that last look and realize it's spent
and you'll always wonder where it went
