Rose Tinted Glasses

I had no idea

Until it happened, how much pain I’d feel

Each and every day

I think about you, ‘bout what I would say

If I got another chance

But chance ain’t on my side

And no matter how hard I try

I just can’t get you off my mind

I keep trying to be a bigger person

It’s not working, inside I just keep hurting

And through your rose tinted glasses

You may think that the grass is

Greener on the other side

And so you say goodbye

Think it’s your time to fly

But colour doesn’t always mean

Beauty, hope and evergreen

So I cannot let you go

And the harder you pull

The tighter I will hold

If I could turn back time

I’d do whatever that would save your life

I’d stay by your side

Remove the pain and tears from your eyes

If I got another chance

But chance ain’t on my side

And no matter how hard I try

I just can’t get you off my mind

I keep trying to be a bigger person

It’s not working, inside I just keep hurting

And through your rose tinted glasses

You may think that the grass is

Greener on the other side

And so you say goodbye

Think it’s your time to fly

But colour doesn’t always mean

Beauty, hope and evergreen

So I cannot let you go

And the harder you pull

The tighter I will hold

All I feel is guilt

Stuck in the shadow of the hole you built

Wish that you were still

Around me but I know you’ve grown your wings

You won’t get another chance

Cause chance has left your side

And no matter how hard I try

All that’s left is to say goodbye
