Life Got in the Way

We knew it all from a little thing

It was everything in our first minute

And it took us to another place

Yeah another place and we fell in it

How dare you not remember

How dare you walk away

We adored every little thing

Every little thing would leave us breathless

Every dawn spelled another day

And in another day we weren't so restless

How dare you not remember

How dare you walk away

And I wanted you so much

Just like I do right now

I wanted us to be the one the poets write their books about

I wanted it to last

I wanted to grow old

But life got in the way

We walked around in a heavy haze

We were stuck in days of so much warring

We got lost in a tricky maze

Yeah a tricky maze that was so scarring

How come you can't remember

How dare you walk away

Then you start to add the little things

Add the little things and trip the mighty

Now we got a little bitter thing

A little bitter thing that grew like ivy

And how dare you not remember

How dare you walk away

And apathy grows quietly where rapture used to fly

And promises and certainty have left love here to die

Won't you stay and don't let this one fall away

Yeah well life got in the way
