A shooting star once passed me by
I'd been staring at the sky
Thinking about you, thinking about you
So I thought to myself
"Whoever's up there please send help"
I want to let go but I don't know how to
Feel like I'm rooted in the ground
Stuck in one place
But the wind is in my hair and I've got a smile on my face
How am I supposed to change
From being minutes away to more miles than I even care to know
Oh why
Can't things just stay the same
I'd give you all my days
Oh I know we were doomed from the get go
From the get go, from the get go
From the get go
If the sun was gone in the morning
I'd notice only you, my darling
Lying next to me, lying next to me
And if the sky was raining bullets I'd try to shield you though you wouldn't
You wouldn't let me
No, you'd never let me
Feel like I'm rooted in the ground
Stuck in one place
But the wind is in my hair and I've got a smile on my face
How am I supposed to change
From being minutes away to more miles than I even care to know
Oh why
Can't things just stay the same
I'd give you all my days
Oh I know we were doomed from the get go
From the get go, from the get go
From the get go
How am I supposed to change
From being minutes away to more miles than I even care to know
Oh why
Can't things just stay the same
I'd give you all my days
Oh I know, oh I know
When is forever gonna come
'Cause we've said it enough and now I'm starting to believe in something
My love I love
The way we've worked things out
I almost want to doubt that we were doomed
We were doomed from the get go
From the get go, from the get go
From the get go
We were doomed from the get go
