As It Is

I stayed awake While worlds away To ask about you And all at once I jumped the gun I didn't mean to To count the days I used to hate But now they're not so tough to live through And while away My freckled face Should surely miss you I guess I've changed It's not a phase Nothing like before You'll miss it though But only 'cause You're sentimental Don't paint this gold Like at the start For it is As it is As we are Don't take it back Don't tell me you can't For it is As it is As we aren't We saved a date It's not too late To rearrange it We jumped the gun You left to run I stayed, conflicted And you still see How we could be Is there something that I'm missing Cos all along I kinda knew That we were fading Don't paint this gold Like at the start For it is As it is As we are Don't take it back Don't tell me you can't For it is As it is As we are For it is As it is As we are For it is As it is As we aren't
