Generate meaning
1
Ain't it funny how, in a minute, your whole life's looking fine
2
And a short few words later it all just comes untied?
3
You can't believe you're looking at what was always someone else
4
Now it's staring right back at you, yesterday you couldn't tell
5
So shock and dissolution, helpless and confused
6
Not knowing how and what to say, not accepting that it's true.
7
You can't help but see the worst to come a thousand different ways
8
The same time trying to hold on strong in optimistic games.
9
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving
10
When I saw you leaving in my mind.
11
And the angry starts to surface, looking up, asking why
12
And you realize he probably wants the best, as same as I
13
Days just go by quickly, nights just never end
14
As time gets so more precious, every sunrise and old friend
15
Trying to be opposed, to lean on, a part you learn is hard to play
16
Asking God to let you take her place or just take it all away.
17
Hope you'll wake up in the morning, was all just been a dream
18
You never take for granted every second that you breathe.
19
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving
20
When I saw you leaving in my mind.
21
And the seconds turn to minutes
22
And minutes wouldn't last
23
And the hours, days and weeks and months
24
Seem endless and too fast
25
And the lessons just pour from Heaven
26
Like the rain on that first spring
27
Since that moment I first saw you
28
You might not always be with me.
29
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving
30
When I saw you leaving in my mind.
31
Ain't it funny how, in a minute, your whole life's looking fine
32
And a short few words later it all just comes untied?
