I don't like being jaded
But the passion has left me
I can't fathom feeling
Too cynical to be so hopeless
Romantic nights seem like fiction
I wait for you but I know I wait in vain

Cause I'm right back where I started
And the world is moving
But I swear I'm standing still watching it all go by

Can't believe it never meant anything to you
But I should've known better
The way you ignored all my handwritten love letters
Yeah I should've known better
Than to let you trick me with your smile

Cause I'm right back where I started
And the world is moving
But I swear I'm standing still watching it all go by

I can't fathom feeling
Too cynical to be this hopeless
Romantic moments
Too hard to imagine
I can't fathom

Cause I'm right back where I started
And the world is moving
But I swear I'm standing still watching it all go by

This jaded passion
I can't imagine it passing
I hold onto where you used to sleep
There's a different body
Lying next to me
So why does this bed feel so empty?

I'm right back where I started
And the world is moving
But I swear I'm standing still watching it all go by

Right back where I started
(But I'm still standing)
Right back where I started
(But I'm still standing)
