After the laughter passes by
And what remains are shadows of the [bad word] you try to hide
And for our sins left never reconciled
The simple [bad word] is hearts were made just to fail
No matter how we try

If I don't see you again
I only hope someday you understand
Time turns good love to goodbye
I should have told you
It's all it would ever be

And so we face the silence of another memory
And draw the shades down upon a scene we once believed
So before you walk away
And I just walk on out just know

If I don't see you again
I only hope someday you understand
Time turns good love to goodbye
I should have told you
It's all it would ever be

I don't know why
Or are we learning all the way
Or is it all just wasted time
Or someday maybe we will find our way

If I don't see you again
I hope someday you understand
Time turns good love to goodbye
I should have told you
It's all it would ever be

I should have told you
