[Verse 1]I feel my soul come alive when I watch the leaves dieBut I'm still turning gold from the glow that I saw in your eyesWriting letters to a ghost of who you once wereI plagiarize every line, 'cause I can't remember[Pre-Chorus]Now I miss every friend I never foundNicotine and a knack for let-downsI've been trying to find the words to sayTo get you back around[Chorus]I never had a chance to get it right(Noo-o-o)But I never triedI can't find the words I wanna writeTo tell you that I'll be better next time[Verse 2]You felt your heart come alive when you watched our love die(Whoa-oa, whoa-oa)And now I'm left feeling cold in the void that you laid in my life(Whoa-oa, whoa-oa)[Pre-Chorus]Now I miss every friend I never foundCaffeine and a knack for let-downsI've been trying to find the words to sayTo keep you all around(To keep you all around)[Chorus]I never had a chance to get it right(Noo-o-o)But I never triedI gotta find the words I wanna writeTo tell you that I'll be better next time[Bridge]Come close, I'll keep my distanceCan't hurt people you don't let inI want to be something you still missOh God, I wish that I was better than this
