lyrics

It’s quite OK for you to feel this way
But to turn and not look back?
I’m afraid for this to sink deep
And disappear without retract
I called it a mistake
I called it a mistake
But it’s not what we bargained for
I know the seasons have changed

I never thought that we would get here
I always tried to play my hand
Now I’m afraid for this to escalate
It bordered on the innocent
I called it a mistake
You called it a mistake
But that’s not the word we’re looking for
I know the seasons have changed

Why would you go stare into this awesome fire
When it was all I had in sight?
Why would you go stare into this awesome fire
When it was all I had inside?

I’m headed west you head east again
It always seemed to go that way
Am I inclined to take the easy way out
While you expect to lead the way?
I called it a mistake
I called it a mistake
That is not what we bargained for
I know the seasons have changed
