Sheila And The Insects The Wave Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All those years we held on to
All the signs we ignored
Far too long, demanding, upsetting
The lessons we showed out the door
Still too proud to surrender
Still play games in my mind
Holding on to our pictures and letters
Old memories I still choose to hide

[Refrain 1]
Now I know it's not easy
The pain is too real
All these things that I'm keeping inside

[Chorus]
So this is the wave
So this is goodbye
All the memories we shared
Of hurts endured you and I

[Verse 2]
How'd we end up so jaded
Unconcerned and unkind
Spirits broken, no reason to suffer
In limbo no love lost inside

[Refrain 2]
Now I know it's too easy
To choose not to feel
And deny all these things deep inside

[Chorus 2]
So this is the wave
So this is goodbye
All the memories we shared
Of hurts endured you and I
So this is the wave
A love neglected too long
Although we managed to care
For each other so long
We have to move on

[Bridge]
There can be no lost love
But there is no going back
All the words we forgot
(And) words too cruel to forget

[Chorus 3]
So this is the wave
And this is goodbye
All the memories we shared
Of what we had you and I
Too little too late
A love neglected too long
Although we managed to care
For each other so long
We have to move on

[Outro]
(You) brought out the best in me
And bore the worst of me
Now we have to move on
Still my heart beats for you
I'll always be there for you
But we have to move on
