Song Lyrics

In one single moment your whole life can turn around
I stand there for a minute staring straight into the ground
Looking to the left slightly then looking back down
The world feels like its caved in proper sorry frown
Please let me show you how we could only just be for us
I can change and I can grow or we can adjust
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust
We can even have an open relationship if we must
I look at her, she stares almost straight back at me
But her eyes glaze over like she's looking straight through me
Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity
When they opened up she's lookin' down at her feet

Dry your eyes mate, I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate, I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, its over

So then I moved my hand off and down by my side, shaking, my life is crashing before my eyes
I turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touched the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh
Because I can't imagine my life without you and me
There's things I can't imagine doing, things I can't imagine seeing
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely, please please, I'm begging, please
She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested
She wraps her fingers around mine with the softness she's blessed with
She peels away my fingers looks at me and then gestures
By pushing my hand away to my chest from hers

Dry your eyes mate, I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate, I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, its over

And I'm just standing there
I can't say a word
'Cause everything has just gone
I've got nothing
Absolutely nothing

Trying to pull her close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around her to try to change what she's saying
Put my head level with hers so she might engage in
Look into her eyes to make her listen again
I'm not gonna fuckin' just fuckin' just leave it all now
'Cause you said it would be forever and that was your vow
And your gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
Your well out of order now, this is well out of town
She pulls away, my arms that are tightly clamped around her waist
Gently pushes me back as she looks at me straight
Turns around so she's now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back and then walks away

Dry your eyes mate, I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate, I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, its over

I know in the past I've found it hard to say, telling you things but not telling you straight
But the more I pull on your hand the more you pull away

Dry your eyes mate, I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate, I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
