Being As An Ocean - The Hardest Part Is Forgetting Those You Swore You Would Never Forget

 / beingasanocean  

There sit two lovers
One's eyes intently chasing the other's
She doesn't love him any more
But he'll stick it out 'til the end
This he had sworn

Lying awake in bed feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to
Where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to
Where you used to rest your head

You see, love's a funny thing
The way it lingers in the mind
No matter what you do or the passing of time
That ember still glows, for those lovers behind
No matter if it's well remembered
That light still shines
Good times take precedent
Over every incident
No matter how poorly spent
So we put on these ridiculous fronts
Like we were just fooling around
That our love was only childish fun
Yet we know different
That it meant something to us
And that piece still lingers in each one that we've loved
So we pick up the pieces
Try and make a half a whole
But in the back of our minds
There's quite a different story to be told

That love has kissed our lips
That love has touched our eyes
And no matter how sincere
Love has changed our lives

Even if all love has flown
We'll have a few scars to proudly show
'Cause at the end of our lives we can say
At least we tried

Lying awake in bed feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to
Where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to
Where you used to rest your head
