Momentary Breakdown

you walked me home late that night
and you laid a kiss on my hand
say goodbye

and though it's been a long, long time
since the night we walked our separate ways
you're on my mind

and I've been here before
I've walked this floor
and I already know we're collapsing

and I kept you near, and I kept you distant
but the more I did, the more I failed
I was wrong

but there are things I have to deal with
in my own specific puzzled way
and I'll be fine

and it's a simple rule to keep in your mind
that nothing ever changes but you

time will never be on your side
