Just Like Slow Motion

November 04 2006
i remember the last time i saw you
you were still in a chair, staring at your monitor..
i know cause i was slowly pacing my way to your door..
i'd had one of the worst weekends of my life...
when I rang the door bell..
you were no where to be found..
and i was sent back to walk away in slow motion..

yeah it was just like slow motion
for a moment my heart stopped
and the moment sank in
and now it's unforgettable
it won't happen again...
yeah it was just like slow motion..

i remember the first time i met you
in the depth of the darkness, i saw your eyes
i know for the casting of light from the tv upon them
i'd never felt better in my whole life
then when I drove back home...
with your number in hand...
i turned to drive back home in slow motion..

yeah it was just like slow motion
for a moment my heart stopped
and the moment sank in
so unforgettable
it will not happen again
yeah it was just like slow motion..

and reflecting back
i did all that i could to save us..
that is one fact i know..
but no matter what
the time we had is in the past...
it is time i let go

it was just like slow motion
the night when you met me
but so similar the
night when you chose to leave
seems some things are too alike
the good and the bad..
and the difference in feeling
is what makes it so sad..
