[Verse 1]
You can search a lifetime for true love
(But) If you find it
Do you have what it takes to conduct and keep it?
Having you was a gift
(Just) As much as it was a curse
A burden that now has run its course

[Pre-Chorus]
You went completely postal
In the sanctum of my heart
I regret that I allowed you in at all

[Chorus]
Did I always say the right things wrong?
All questions I had, left unanswered
Do good things ever come to those who wait?
Or do they just wait forever?

[Verse 2]
Sometimes, you need to pause life and get out
To check if you're on the right train
I guess that's what you did?
(And) When the fat lady finally sang
The worst part was not to lose true love
The worst part was to lose my best friend
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll be another stone
In that heavy backpack of yours
And you'll forever be
The one that got away

[Chorus]
Did I always say the right things wrong?
All questions I had, left unanswered
Do good things ever come to those who wait?
Or do they just wait forever?

[Bridge]
Forever looks awfully much like four years
Four years, three months
And nine days to be more precise
Now you know, kids

[Chorus]
Did I always say the right things wrong?
All questions I had, left unanswered
Do good things ever come to those who wait?
Or do they just wait forever?
Got to be who you are in this world
Never walk out on your own story
But if you ever need me again
You know that I'll be, I'll be around
