If I were the sunshine,
She'd be the rain that
Closes down my day and washes me away
If I were the ocean,
She'd be the land
Stops me cold in her sand
I guess I'll never understand
Why she left me there to drown
She always let me down
The only way that she knew how
Chorus
But I still miss her every day
The smile upon her face and I
Still hold her close to me
But it's just her memory
She's only a mile away
But in her head she's nowhere near me
And I don't think she ever will be
If I were the inmate,
She'd be the chains
That keep me crushed and contained
Driving me insane
If I were the addict,
She'd be the pain
The high I can't sustain
Slowly eating me away why she left me there to drown she always broke me down
The only way that she knew how
Chorus
No I don't think she ever will be
Or will she
I think I may, I think I might
Might be at her door tonight
Turn away, she won't love
Me or will she?
But I still miss her every day
The smile upon her face and I
Still hold her close to me
But it's just her memory
She's only a mile away
But in her head she's nowhere near me
Or will she?
