lyrics

Verse 1:
I'm writing out my letter
To who we used to be
I wish I could remember
Just how much you mean to me

Prechorus:
I truly wish this love of mine
Was really more than just a state of mind

Chorus:
I was done pretending
And it made you disappear
You were imaginary
But my love couldn't make you real
I want to remember
but I can only forget
How could a simple lapse in judgement
Cause such permanent regret?

Verse 2:
I recall that you were perfect
But your image has escaped
The risk, it seems, it wasn't worth it
To live with this huge mistake

Prechorus:
I truly wish this love of mine
Was really more than just a state of mind

Chorus:
I was done pretending
And it made you disappear
You were imaginary
But my love couldn't make you real
I want to remember
but I can only forget
How could a simple lapse in judgement
Cause such permanent regret?

*musical interlude*

I was done pretending
And it made you disappear
You were imaginary
But my love couldn't make you real
I want to remember
but I can only forget
How could a simple lapse in judgement
Cause such permanent regret?
