I'm biding my time
Till hard feelings die down
Unfair, that's how it seems to me
You haven't spoken in days
Somehow I let you down
I always try to reassure you
Do all I can to help you out
Some places I just can't reach
And I just don't know what to say to you
All I can do is stay beside you
I understand your state of mind
It fills me with fear
I'm beside you now
But there's something else
That stands between us here
I thought it long gone that song
I thought it long gone that's all
You'll never know how it kills me so
To see you sitting there
Tearing at the thoughts
You think no one understands
Or wants to hear
Try me, I'm here beside you.
Somehow I let you down
Just stood there and watched you drown
I wasn't there to reassure you
I wasn't there to help you out.
Well I don't remember it that way
I would have said the right thing
Were there anything to say
All I could do was stay beside you.
