lyrics

OUR LIVES LIE
(Emma Bortolon-Vettor/Mark Ferrari)

I'm already gone, just haven't said goodbye
I've been awoken to a greater mind
In the sunset of our time.
You don't have to say don't have to stay
To be honest, I've had my bags packed for days.
I won't be your tie that binds

When inevitably you need a friend, don't expect a lending hand.
'Cause I can't be your comfortable
No I won't be your comfortable.

Grow, and I will grow too.
Where to begin, I'm afraid to lose my times with you.
Memories will only get you through
Our lives lie, in something new.

And it's true, what you said:
"I'd rather live apart than together and dead..."
I just didn't have the words.
But now, now we know.
How many years with not much to show.
Are we living for the birds?

When inevitably you need a friend, don't expect a lending hand.
'Cause I can't be your comfortable
No I won't be your comfortable.

Grow, and I will grow too.
Where to begin, I'm afraid to lose my times with you.
Memories will only get you through
Our lives lie, in something new.

So this is good riddance,
Never quite goodbye,
Decisions for rebirth and dreaming to survive.
I'll save the last dance for you.
