Sorry for this delayed reaction
We lost the touch but never the attraction
You said you had enough
So I backed off, believing your bluff
Backed off for a little too long…
Why did it become so easy to go wrong?
Expressing feelings through pretty syllables
Comparisons, metaphors, and made up fables
We stood still for too long to call it hesitating
Instead of you, it’s these lonely days I ended up hating
I’m missing you missing me
And the phone calls until three
A place far away is only for happy tales
So if you’re so far away, let’s let love prevail
And end this story with a sunrise
Why did we ever let it set?
I’ll say it at once if you say it with me
We can go together on the path at three
I miss you and I need you in my life
We can pull out the heart-breaking knife
Because darling, life’s been good to me
And you’re the air I breathe
So, I’ll be good to you, too
Come back to me for the sake of truth
Because darling, without you I’m not me
Without you, I lose my youth
Precious thoughts inside my head
But without you I give them away to crooks
Yes, and I’m sorry for this delayed reaction
We lost touch but never the attraction
