The Rules

Standing at the gate with the wrong passcode I guess this is the end Promises we made when we were close I was blessed to be your friend The more I dream, the less you show The more I breathe, the less I know I try to get the feeling back But all the colors have turned black I know the rules Once they're gone, those days don't return again But I can't help wishing they'd come back I know the rules Once you're gone, I won't see you again But I can't help wishing you'd come back I can't help wishing you'd come back Brick turns to rubble, then the rubble is dust Time will always win We were the exception, or so we thought And we would never end The more I breathe, the less I know The more I dream, the less you show I know the rules Once they're gone, those days don't return again But I can't help wishing they'd come back I know the rules Once you're gone, I won't see you again But I can't help wishing you'd come back I can't help wishing you'd come back You were always good to me Easy now to look back and see That's just the way it goes That's just the way I try to get the feeling back But all the colors have turned black I know the rules Once they're gone, those days don't return again But I can't help wishing they'd come back I know the rules Once you're gone, I won't see you again But I can't help wishing you'd come back I can't help I know the rules Once you're gone, I won't see you again But I can't help wishing you'd come back I can't help wishing you'd come back
