Just the Timing Was Wrong
(S. Ingersoll, 1999)
You said it was fine,
you said not to worry
you said lets try,but you turned away
I said, can’t you hear,
I said you can trust me
I said that I loved you,but it wasn’t enough
Now I sit here alone
trying to understand
where did things go wrong?
Maybe the time was wrong
I feel you in my heart,
I see you in my dreams
the smile that moves me, and the face I cannot touch
I tried so hard to heal,
the confusion in your mind
those deep dark corners, but I just could not reach
Now I sit here alone
trying to understand
how could I have known
that the timing was wrong
I wonder where you are
and I wonder what you feel
can you see a path and is it straight and clear
for now I can see
that time will heal my heart
and I know that your walls, time will help them fall
Here I sit alone
I think that I understand
I think now I know
just the timing was wrong
