Nevergreen

(альбом: The Cure For Breathing - 2023)

I've been avoiding mirrors and my reflection in the glass
'Cause it hurts to see the man that I am now
That I am now
I never shoulda let you go
Now I know

That it shoulda been us!
Or maybe it wasn't meant to be
I live with your shadow now
Burnt into my memory
Sometimes you don't get it right the first time
So close but out of reach
It should have been us (Should have been us)
But it all turned out to be
Never-green

Been cutting corners
And wondering what you're up to
Is this a daydream or not?
Where will I find you?
Is it just me or is it we?
Call it wishful thinking
Staring at the ceiling

Never shoulda walked away (walked away)
Can you hear me say

That it shoulda been us!
Or maybe it wasn't meant to be
I live with your shadow now (Shadow now)
Burnt into my memory
Sometimes you don't get it right the first time
So close but out of reach
It should have been us (Should have been us)
But it all turned out to be
Never-green

Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Just a little out of reach
Is it me or is it we?
Call it wishful thinking

Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Is it something I can't see?
I never shoulda walked away
Am I too late?

'Cause it shoulda been us
I know your love is what I need
So if I ever cross your mind
Then you know where to find me

It shoulda been us
Or maybe it wasn't meant to be
I live with your shadow now (shadow now)
Burnt into my memory
Sometimes you don't get it right the first time
So close but out of reach
It should have been us (Should have been us)
But it all turned out to be
Never-green
