She has a grip on his broken wings
That's why it's hard for him to fly
She's forgotten how to have a dream
It seems like she never really tried
And he's trying to figure out what to say
He can't watch her live her life this way
Don't you see
Don't you see
What you want isn't always what you need
Don't you see
Don't you see
Don't you see
He wonders what she does with her nights
Hoping in sadness she's doing alright
She's been crying in her bed every night again
Spilt tears over a dream she let go of
And he's waiting for her to come back around
She can't watch him live his life this way
Don't you see
Don't you see
What you want isn't always what you need
Don't you see
Don't you see
Don't you see
She must of had
Reasons for leaving
Not a one that he could see
She must of had
Reasons for leaving
He thinks it must have been him
Don't you see
Don't you see
What you want isn't always what you need
Don't you see
Don't you see
Don't you see
Don't you see
Don't you see
