Kayleigh
Fish Lyrics

Do you remember chalk hearts melting on a playground wall
Do you remember the innocent love and passion we shared when we were young?

Do you remember dawn escapes from moon washed college halls
Do you remember the time we spent together, sneaking out at dawn from college, our love young, fresh and unbridled?

Do you remember the cherry blossom in the market square
Do you remember the beauty of the cherry blossom, and how it was a symbol of our love, pure and unspoiled?

Do you remember I thought it was confetti in our hair
Do you remember how I mistook the falling cherry blossom petals in our hair for confetti, and how we laughed together?

By the way didn't I break your heart?
By the way, did I break your heart? I've been thinking about it and I always wondered if I did.

Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
I never intended to hurt you, and I want to apologize for any pain I caused.

So sorry, I never meant to break your heart
I'm truly sorry for any hurt I may have caused you. It was never my intention.

But you broke mine
But you also hurt me, and it's been hard for me to move on.

Kayleigh is it too late to say I'm sorry?
Kayleigh, I know it's been a while, but is it too late for me to apologize and try to make things right?

And Kayleigh could we get it together again?
Kayleigh, I still have feelings for you, and I'm wondering if we could try to start fresh and make things work again?

I just can't go on pretending that it came to a natural end
I can't keep pretending that our relationship ended on its own. I take responsibility for my mistakes and want to make amends.

Kayleigh, oh I never thought I'd miss you
Kayleigh, I never imagined that I would miss you this much. I know I messed up, but I still care about you.

And Kayleigh I thought that we'd always be friends
Kayleigh, I always hoped that even if we couldn't be together romantically, we could still be friends.

We said our love would last forever
We made a promise to each other that our love would be everlasting.

So how did it come to this bitter end?
But somehow our relationship ended up in bitterness and hurt. I wish it could have been different.

Do you remember barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars
Do you remember those magical nights we spent together, lying barefoot on the lawn under shooting stars?

Do you remember loving on the floor in Belsize Park
Do you remember the passion we shared on the floor of our apartment in Belsize Park?

Do you remember dancing in stilettoes in the snow
Do you remember the fun we had dancing in high heels in the snow?

Do you remember you never understood I had to go
Do you remember how you never quite understood my reasons for leaving? It wasn't because I stopped loving you.

Kayleigh I just wanna say I'm sorry
Kayleigh, I want to tell you again that I'm sorry for everything that happened between us.

But Kayleigh I'm too scared to pick up the phone
But I'm afraid to call you and find out that you've moved on without me.

To hear you've found another lover to patch up our broken home
I'm scared to find out that you've moved on and found someone else to fill the space in your heart that belonged to me.

Kayleigh I'm still trying to write that love song
Kayleigh, I'm still trying to express my feelings for you through music, but it's been hard to find the right words.

Kayleigh it's more important to me now you're gone
Kayleigh, now that you're gone, I realize how important you were to me and how much I love and miss you.

Maybe it will prove that we were right
Maybe writing this love song will prove to us that our love was real and meant to be.

Or ever prove that I was wrong
Or maybe it will prove that I was wrong and that our love was never meant to be. Either way, I need to try.
