Lyrics

0:08My foundation was rocked my tried and true way to deal was to vanish
0:22My departures were old I stood in the room shaking in my boots
0:39At that particular time love had challenged me to stay
0:47At that particular moment I knew not run away again
0:54That particular month I was ready to investigate with you
1:02At that particular time
1:07We thought a break would be good for four months we sat and vacillated
1:25We thought a small time apart would clear up the doubts that were abounding
1:41At that particular time love encouraged me to wait
1:49At that particular moment it helped me to be patient
1:57That particular month we needed time to marinate in what "us" meant
2:07That particular time
2:12I've always wanted for you what you've wanted for yourself
2:20And yet I wanted to save us high water or hell
2:26And I kept on ignoring the ambivalence you felt
2:36And in the meantime I lost myself
2:44In the meantime I lost myself
2:52I'm sorry I lost myself i am
2:58You knew you needed more time time spent alone with no distraction
3:23You felt you needed to fly solo and high to define what you wanted
3:39At that particular time love encouraged me to leave
3:46At that particular moment I knew staying with you meant deserting me
3:54That particular month was harder than you'd believe but I still left
4:03At that particular time
My foundation was rocked my tried and true way to deal was to vanish
My departures were old I stood in the room shaking in my boots
At that particular time love had challenged me to stay
At that particular moment I knew not run away again
That particular month I was ready to investigate with you
At that particular time
We thought a break would be good for four months we sat and vacillated
We thought a small time apart would clear up the doubts that were abounding
At that particular time love encouraged me to wait
At that particular moment it helped me to be patient
That particular month we needed time to marinate in what "us" meant
That particular time
I've always wanted for you what you've wanted for yourself
And yet I wanted to save us high water or hell
And I kept on ignoring the ambivalence you felt
And in the meantime I lost myself
In the meantime I lost myself
I'm sorry I lost myself  i am
You knew you needed more time time spent alone with no distraction
You felt you needed to fly solo and high to define what you wanted
At that particular  time love encouraged me to leave
At that particular moment I knew staying with you meant deserting me
That particular month was harder than you'd believe but I still left
At that particular time
