They speak of jobs and positions
who's seeing who, who's settled down
they casually mention your name
the power in the a word's insane
how it triggers everything to come tumbling down
into the pit of my stomach
boulders and butterflies coexist
that chemical reaction shared by all romantics
threatens to persist
[chorus]
and this
unanswered question
lingers on
to this later date
can i resign
to never knowing
if i was your one that got away
the back and forth, the on and off
the "don't call anymore"
the leaving, the wishing i had stayed
a self inflicted prison i can't escape
like if i did the memories would decay
and there'd be no more hours of dreaming
bout what a life with you would have been
that chemical reaction shared by all romantics
has some twisted need to exist
[Bridge]
say you feel nothing when you see me
say that where i walk ,flowers have grown
say that i rocked your world
say that i was never your girl
just give me somethin'
give me somethin' i can put in stone
[chorus]
