Losing You
Otto's Daughter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we are you and I
Never thought that we could break
Fall apart fade away
Is this what I think it is?

I hate to lose you say goodbye
you run away crawl back inside
We used to be so fun and free
We used to think so much alike

ahh ahh ahh ahh

You slam the door walk away
our conversations turn to screams
what happened to you and me
and the way things used to be?

I hate to lose you say goodbye
You run away crawl back inside
We used to be so fun and free
We used to think so much alike
It's not the same
You're not the same
I used to dance with in the rain
I don't want to believe it
You're near me I can't feel you

I hate to lose you say goodbye
You run away crawl back inside
We used to be so fun and free
We used to think so much alike
It's not the same
You're not the same
I used to dance with in the rain
It's not the same




I'm not the same
You used to dance with in the rain
