lyrics

Had I been stronger, would you have known
would you have known me in more honorable ways?
Instead of dully in pictures of who
for a moment I tried my best to be.

Had it been later and done not-so-urgently
could we have met more properly?
So I could fondly think of you
even after we’ve parted ways.

If we were wiser and not so insecure
could we have gotten to know each other more?
If I was not so worried ‘bout what you thought of me
I wouldn’t have taken things you said so personally.

If I was water, then you, my friend, were snow.
I would freeze in seasons that you’d come and go.
But it wasn’t even me. No, it wasn’t even me.
I get my rhythm back when the sun’s aglow
and I feel better ‘bout which way my tide will go.
