It was just a game
The tears reflected on her necklace as she ran away
A red and yellow flash
She forgot to grab the invitation, I gave to her today
I tried to make it right
It wouldn't be that way
I tried to make it right
It wasn't meant to be
She was gone for days
She was painting numbers on a briefcase
It was a secret code
She didn't answer the phone
She never opened the curtains in her window as I pleaded from below
I tried to make it right
It wouldn't be that way
I tried to make it right
It wasn't meant to be
I frightened silhouette
Made the perfect ending to this drama
A sad soliloquy
She turned off the light
A final sigh, it was over
I couldn't say good-bye
I tried to make it right
It wouldn't be that way
I tried to make it right
It wasn't meant to be
