From (Daughter) To (Father)

How did we get this way? We had everything We had each other Nothing could bring us apart But now here we are We are starting to fall And we can't help each other What brought us apart? I thought everything would be fine That we'd have no problems in our lives Now all I can taste is the salt from my tears And all the pressure from your fears But I just gotta know right now I gotta know right now Are we ever going to be okay? We could talk about everything Even laugh and smile But now we fight about everything And we're both in denial We don't seem to understand The hurt this brings to both of us And it seems we don't Care for one another I thought everything would be fine That we'd have no problems in our lives Now all I can taste is the salt from my tears And all the pressure from your fears But I just gotta know right now I gotta know right now Are we ever going to be okay? I know you're scared But so am I I know you don't want to be like them Neither do I We had it good Everything was fine Now there's too much reasoning On who is right I know what I'm doing with my life I hope you know what you're doing with yours You can come back anytime Don't stay gone It's not too late It's not too late, to fix What's been broken Just don't give up on me And I won't give up on you It's not too late It will never be too late Unless you let this get to you I won't let it, get to me Written March 5, 2005
