[Verse 1]
Been there, done that
Is what they all say
If they want you
To feel that you are just alike
I can feel you
Watching over
Can you tell me
Have you learned your lesson yet?

When we started
There were possibilities
Had to chance it
Once in a lifetime was this call
Though we might have
Rubbed a few wrong 'long the way
I got to admit there isn't anything that I regret

[Chorus]
All this time
Want to shine
Find a way
So I can just appease this heart of mine
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself
[Bridge]
We tried to pick up the pieces
We have tried it all
We tried to pick up the pieces

[Chorus]
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself

[Verse 2]
Now we're older
All of our blemishes intact
Looking back, I know
We didn't always make the right decision
We'll die knowing
That we did it our own way
And I can't think of a better way
Than to spend my life with you

[Chorus]
All this time
Want to shine
Find a way
So I can just appease this heart of mine
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself
[Bridge]
We tried to pick up the pieces
We have tried it all
We tried to pick up the pieces

We tried to pick up the pieces
We have tried it all
We tried to pick up the pieces
We have tried it all
We tried to pick up the pieces

[Chorus]
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself
I don't want to go back to the way that it was
Been so long since I felt that I could be myself

[Outro]
I can feel you
Watching over me
Can you tell me
Have you learned your lesson yet?
