Like Before by Junebug
Summer got cold and twisted
It wasn’t quite how I’d wished it
But maybe that’s it, what’s done is done
Been searching in case I missed it
Or evidence it existed
But everything around me says its gone
I’m shivering with the change of the seasons
And I only wish that things could be
Like before like before, when we were young
Like before like before, what have we become
Like before like before, so distant from
Like before like before, what have we done
Somehow we’ve just outgrown it
Its been a while we’ve both known it
You say its not so, but I can tell
Not ready to be alone yet
Your heart on your sleeve postpones it
But misery’s a look you don’t wear well
I realise there’s no sense in the reasons
But I only wish that things could be
Like before like before, right at the start
Like before like before, when we had heart
Like before like before, we built this guard
Like before like before, we came apart
Before we gave up on our dreams
Before we learned what lonely means
Before we let the hurt set in
Before our patience wore this thin
Before the fights were tired and old
Before resentment took its hold
Before we started keeping score
Before we needed something more
Before we lost our will to try
Before the moment passed us by
Before we let it slip away
Before we settled for today
