Those hugs were supposed to last forever
Every rose you stopped to smell withered
Crystal hearts just don't beat loudly or not at all
The sea glass is smaller and the shells are all broken
Lovely echo gone
When did hearing replace listening?
When did you give yourself back?
You remain everything
that you used to be
Except that smile is painted on and stuck in time
Used to bes don"t cant anymore
Or do they Neil Diamond?
You're talking but I don't need what you say
How many times can your tears bleed?
We saw the footprints you left for us on the winds of the sand

The lyric "used to bes don't count anymore "comes from Neil Diamond's song, You don't bring me flowers
