It went right by me
At the time it went over my head
I was looking out the window
I should have looked at your face insteadIt went right by me
Just another wall
There should have been a moment
When we let our barriers fallI never meant what you're thinking
That's not what I meant at allWell I guess, we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Some of them learned as a childThe things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
Time will do its healing
You've got to let it goClosed for my protection
Open to your scorn
Between these two directions
My heart is sometimes tornI lie awake with my secrets
Spinning around my head
Something that somehow escaped me
Something you shouldn't have saidI was looking out the window
I should have looked at your face insteadWell I guess, we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Some of them learned as a childThe things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
Time will do its healing
You've got to let it go
Let it goI find no absolution
In my rational point of view
Maybe some things are instinctive
But there's one thing you could doYou could try to understand me
I could try to understand you
You could try to understand me
I could try to understand youWell I guess, we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Some of them learned as a childThe things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
Time will do its healing
You've got to let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
