Is this how it's going to be
  These expectations laid in front of me
  Holds me down, then sets me free
  Is this how it's going to start
  With this emptiness inside my heart
  Over time pulls me apart
  Don't break this thread
  It's all I have of you
  Don't break this thread
  It's all that I hold onto
  This is what's in my head
  This is how I feel about you
  This is what's in my head
  And this is what I do
  Is this how it's going to end
  With so many letters left to send
  It's not enough just to pretend
  Is this all I have left
  I'll never forget you
  I sat with you as we looked out on the water
  And I knew it was right
  Don't break this thread
  It's all I have of you
  By this string I've been led
  It's all that I hold onto
  This is what's in my head
  This is how I feel about you
  This is what's in my head
  And this is what I do
  I still remember that morning when the sunlight hit your eyes
  I made you feel guilty, but I never made you cry
  I know you don't believe me when I tell you the truth
  And I know you look right through me when I'm looking through to you
  I'm never going to realize, I'm never going to understand
  I'm always going to be a boy, I'm never going to be a man
  I held you in my arms, and I swore I'd never leave
  I just hope that you were listening and I hope that you believe me
