S. Crow / Sting

My yesterdays are all boxed up
and neatly put away
But every now and then
you come to mind
Cause you were always waiting
to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called,
you found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always
on your side.
Well everything was easy then,
so sweet and innocent
But my demons and my angels
reappeared
Leavin'only traces
of the man you thought I'd be
Too afraid to hear the words
I'd always feared
Leavin'you with only questions
all these years.
But is there some place far away,
some place where all is clear
Easy to start over
with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder,
all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really
meant to be
No it isn't how it's really
meant to be
Well they say that love
is in the air,
but never is it clear,
How to pull it close
and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly,
and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on
and wonder why
Even through it all,
I'm always on your side
But is there some place far away,
some place where all is clear
Easy to start over
with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder,
all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really
meant to be
No it isn't how it's really
meant to be
Well they say that love
is in the air,
never is it clear
How to pull it close
and make it stay
If butterflies are free to fly,
why do they fly away
Leavin'me to carry on
and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wondering
through this life
When you know that I was always
on your side
