lyrics
I'm not allowed to be sad
I have all the things that I ever wished I'd had
I'm not allowed to lament
When I've loved every moment that I've spent
What is this role that I'm playing?
I keep meeting others but it seems they're never staying
You've got my back and I'm waiting
Watching those years I've been dating
Try to explain, but I can't do
I sure wish I knew why hearts pick who they do
And what you don't know won't hurt you
Well I know that just isn't true
Play it all out, one run through
I'm watching the sides and what they do
Oooooooo
I've been dressed for the occasion
Waiting for some explanation
I don't want this feeling to take the lead
It isn't what I asked for, it isn't what I need
I want some time in a bit part
I want to hide with a running start
I want to hold onto extras
And play the story line no one expects of us
And what you don't know won't hurt you
Well I know that just isn't true
I'm torn into bits with the wondering
I want to save old but I want new
And I don't know what to do
Ooooooooo
