I'm clutching at the walls
I'm falling apart
Trying to remember
when I knew my heart
I'm crying tears
I don't know who they're for
They rain upon my lonely lips
'til I can't taste them anymore
For a moment I was loved
I was happy and then
someone let the real world
come crashing in
I let myself believe in fairytales
I let the prince take my hand
But too soon our castle came tumbling down
Seems it was only made of sand
But it was built with so much love
just too close to the waves
My heart made its home there
and with love it can be saved
Because one thing I know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
One thing I know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
Forgive me if I can't look at you
can't handle your face
Forgive that I don't know what to do
I'm not in my proudest place
I'm feeling bad for letting myself feel good
and guilt for having guilt
And I'm crying like I think I should
I let fall what we just built
Tell myself to be strong
to forget how good it's been
But if nothing else I know my heart
won't be without you again
I let myself get too happy
Let this love feel too safe
And when things fell, I turned from you
my biggest mistake
If I pretend I don't love you
for one more day
I have no right
to expect you to stay
But one thing I know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
One thing I know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
Oh did I take away
a little of what we made
Did I make you believe
it meant less than everything
If I did then shame on me
Because all that I said
welcoming forever
Every picture in my head
of you and me together
I hold on to
Did I forget to tell you
every moment with you
made another dream come true
If you let me let go now
then shame on you
Because one thing I know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
One thing we both know is true
I never lived, I never loved
a false moment with you
I never loved a false moment with you
