Long Forgotten Lyrics
Oceansize
These are the secrets you will share
These are the words you cannot bare
This is the sight youll never see
And that you have forgotten me
The voice that tempted you away
The deepest hole in which I stay
I miss you most my darkest hour
Im wondering where the hell you are
Too late to tell you you were wrong
Another word to dwell upon
You could have waited for me
Like I was waiting just for you
The fuse is flicker in his eye
Her touch to blow me open wide
I could have run a million times
But I was waiting for you
And did you ever stop to think
About how low that you could sink
And down the low, our deepest sigh
Within yourself you cannot hide
Do photographs and faces lie?
Why did I never wonder why?
Why I was waiting for you (x2)
