Never Had Lyrics

I've been gone for so long now
Chasing everything thats new
I have forgotten how I got here
I have not forgotten you
We were just children with our eyes opening
You were all that i could see
You came close enough to know my heart beat but
Still not close enough for meThrough the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had
The only chance I wish I had to take
There was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow
I know now and I just cant forget
Youre the best I never hadNananaIn this motel
Will pass midnight
When im bluer than a bruise
And you come drifting in through the half light
In your funny yellow shoes

And I hope thats you standing at my doorway
Thats the scratchin of your key
And I hope this song im singing
Someday finds you
My letter to EliseThrough the good times and the bad
You were the best I never had
The only chance I wish I had to take
There was no writing on the wall
No warning signs to follow
I know now and I just cant forget
Youre the best I never had
Nana Nanana
Best I never had
Nana Nanana
Best I never had mmm
