Do you still sleep without your pillows
In the house on Cherry street? Do you hear the sea?
And we promised we would meet back up in autumn
But next spring came crawling on its knees
You couldn't fit inside my suitcase
And I didn't wanna be slowed down
Sometimes I wish
That I could turn the clock around
Why Daniel? I wish you'd talked me out of it
Through thin and thick
Why Daniel? Why'd you let me walk away
I would've stayed
I convinced me if I loved you, I'd leave you, I was lying
You stood there with your palms out, your crying was silent
Why Daniel? I didn't mean a word I said back then
Why'd you let me win?
I remember when we spoke of flying North to Paris, France
Just to feed the birds
And do you still have that old napkin you took home from the cafe
Where I wrote those three words?
You couldn't follow me to L.A.
I should have never took that job
Now three years have passed
And I still feel so robbed
Why Daniel? I wish you'd talked me out of it
Through thin and thick
Why Daniel? Why'd you let me walk away
I would've stayed
I convinced me if I loved you, I'd leave you, I was lying
You stood there with your palms out, your crying was silent
Why Daniel? I didn't mean a word I said back then
Why'd you let me win?
Have you settled down with someone
Since I gave you time to grow?
Do you ever think about me, was it easy to let go?
I was such a foolish soul
Why Daniel? I wish you'd talked me out of it
Through thin and thick
Why Daniel? Why'd you let me walk away
I would've stayed
I convinced me if I loved you, I'd leave you, I was lying
You stood there with your palms out, your crying was silent
Why Daniel? I didn't mean a word I said back then
Why'd you let me win? Why'd you let me win?
