Lyrics This is It - Rich Aucoin

Mary's stuck on seeing what she can't get back
Pounding like the beating from a heart attack
Hiding it from strangers 'cause she's so polite
Wanting to get back to when she felt alright
Talking of the past like it was yesterday
And it's all she'll recall anyway
'Cause she's lost in the moment

Waiting alone, this is all she'll get
It's gone when it's over, have you heard it yet?
This is it

Ryan's waiting standby for his yes or no
Holding in the goodbye like it's touch and go
Wading through the water when it's sink or swim
Passing on the offers through the thick and thin
Running out of minutes while he's still on hold
And who's gonna call him at all
When he's missed every moment?

Waiting alone, 'cause he can't commit
It's gone when it's over, have you heard it yet?
This is it

Alex went on hoping like they did before
Broken but still coping when they know there's more
Fearing of it failing so they hold their tongue
Constantly derailing every one by one
Safely on the sidelines giving up the dream
After all they withdraw from the scene
'Cause they're scared of the moment

Waiting for something that they'll never get
Losing their lives like they won't admit
Trying to find what they won't forget
Good god, when it's over, but it ain't quite yet
This is it

Trying to find what they won't forget
It's gone when it's over, have you heard it yet?
This is it
