You were the one
That I couldn't find
Hidden away
In the depths of my mind
[Chorus]
Why did I let you go you're to good to be true
I messed it up and now I don't know what to do
We ran in circles and wasted time
From right to wrong, from right to wrong
If I knew that you were mine
I wouldn't have wasted time
I wish I could erase the past
Now it's all collapsed - in my lap [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/aly_aj/collapsed.html ]
I overthought
So I locked up my heart-yeah
There you stood
Your blue eyes hidden beneath your hood
[Chorus]
My mind is blank just like a clean slate
Will I need another guy with the same blue eyes
And the same name with the Converse shoes I gave
Will he have the same laugh
Wear my homemade hat
Bet I'll make another mistake
And think he's just another - fake
Wish I could erase the past now
Wish I could bring you back
If I knew that you were mine
I wouldn't have wasted time
I wish I could erase the past
Now it's all collapsed - in my lap (repeat)
This song tells about a girl who had a guy that she liked more than a friend, but less than a bf and finds out he likes her. Then he leaves and she realizes she misses him and wants him back. She would erase the past if she could and is sorry for wasting time.
