If you wanted me to love you
It never had to be this hard.
You waste your time pretending
You never know what's really in your heart.
Don't waste all of your energy
On chasing dreams and chasing me
The time has passed and we're too far for that
We're leading separate lives
much older since the time that we loved last
[chorus]
And we're all in the sun again
Fighting for lost time
And we're all wishing we had more
Dancing circles with our eyes around each other
We know better
Crowded rooms make heavy lies
Pause, breathless, for a moment
We both know it
A heartprint never dies
If you promise not to love me
I promise you one day I'll let you go
We could spend a lifetime
Pretending that our bodies didn't know our minds
But really underneath our bones
We're certain that we've found our homes
So I'll be homeless, sipping on cheap wine
With my smile stuck like glue
Fingers intertwined with other guys'
But all the while my eyes will be on you
[chorus]
And we're all in the sun again
Fighting for lost time
And we're all wishing we had more
Dancing circles with our eyes around each other
We know better
Crowded rooms make heavy lies
Pause, breathless, for a moment
We both know it
A heartprint never dies
A heartprint never dies
