My yesterdays are all boxed up
And neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind
'Cause you were always waiting
To be picked to play the game
But when your name was called
You found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always on your side
Well everything was easy then
So sweet and innocent
But my demons and my angels reappeared
Leavin' all the traces of the man you thought I'd be
To afraid to hear the words I'd always feared
Leavin' you so many questions all these years
Is there someplace far away ?
Someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder ?
All alone, eternally
This isn't how it's realy meant to be
No, it isn't how it's realy meant to be
Well they say that love is in the air
Never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly
And so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all I'm always on your side
Is there someplace far away ?
Someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are we left to wonder ?
All alone, eternally
But is this how it's really meant to be ?
No, itisn't how it's really meant to be
Well they say that love is in the air
Never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay
If butterflies are free to fly
Why do they fly away ?
Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wondering through this life ?
When you know that I was always on your side
