Sentimentale

No way out from what I used to be
Outside the school it was cold, but it was the end of May
I bit my lips again. It was just too much for me
To call things by their name
And then run away and hide
So I walked for hours always hoping to be wrong
But I was not wrong this time: I wanted you
Was I aware of what I was missing?
I moved against the tide, rejecting something that could have
I was so young and weak, hoping and loving
The music on my side, my life against my life
I was in love like an ever flowing stream
You were the letter that
I wrote but I have not sent
So I walked for hours always hoping to be wrong
But I was not wrong this time: I wanted you
Was I aware of what I was missing?
I moved against the tide, rejecting something that could have
I was so young and weak, hoping and loving
The music on my side, my life against my life
