Savage Hands - Taken lyrics

There was a time when I was younger and naïve I thought we'd both be living forever, December You used to tell me not to worry about my fears As I grow old I’ll learn to defeat them, defeat them I swear you said you were coming home But the pain inside, it just took you away from me You swore that you would make amends With the way you left, will the memories ever end? As we grew older you grew distant and afraid Like your head was caving in under pressure, September You left with the summer, let my world unfold I'll always be burdened by the fears that I hold But you said I’d defeat them Will the memories ever end? I swear you said you were coming home But the pain inside, it just took you away from me You swore that you would make amends With the way you left, will the memories ever end? You'll know someday why I just couldn't stay Why I was taken away You'll learn one day that I made the mistake Of trading everything that I ever loved for feelings I can't fake For things I couldn't replace But I pray that you could learn to forgive me I swear that I’ll change I swear you said you were coming home But the pain inside, it just took you away from me You swore that you would make amends With the way you left, will the memories ever end?
