Lyrics Just To Know - Ben Eales

I am in the mood to sentimentally scroll through my videos and realise I forgot your birthday
Sit and wonder why, if we grew apart, if we didn't try, or when I return, will it be to the first day
When we had met, when we had smiled, made some memories for a while
But I suppose a while's not forever
And now we're here, you never call, and I'm too nervous to at all
I wait too long, it's too late and no better

How can we come back to the past
If I'd known where we are now, I'd promise to make it last
If I could catch that lightning in a bottle
If I could lay in that feeling of hope
If I could see your face again, and know despite this we're still friends
That'd be enough, just to know

I'm reading our messages, group chats and one-on-ones, and wondering how it all turned out this way
Look back just a year ago, the two of us, inseperable, and now confronted with a sense of dismay
I still remember every second like it's seared into my skull
Not a moment worth forgetting, never bored and never dull
So now I've sat here for a while, a new non-artificial smile, and curiousity what would make this change

How can we come back to the past
If I'd known where we are now, I'd promise to make it last
If I could catch that lightning in a bottle
If I could lay in that feeling of hope
If I could see your face again, and know despite this we're still friends
That'd be enough, just to know

Happy birthday by the way
I wish it wasn't so belated
And I have so much more to say
I just feel sorry now
For how it all turned out
You might not even know it, but I'm still questioning

How can we come back to the past
If I'd known where we are now, I'd promise to make it last
If I could catch that lightning in a bottle
If I could lay in that feeling of hope
If I could see your face again, and know despite this we're still friends
That'd be enough, just to know
That'd be enough, just to know
That'd be enough, just to know
