Never Made it There

Alright. So about two months ago I posted the lyrics to a song. Since then, the song was changed, so I'm going to post the lyrics as they turned out to be. There's also a video of the performance if you're interested in that.

Make it There
by Andrew Doerr and Hannah Lanz

There he goes

He's walking by

And he doesn't

Even know

How I love him

More than anything.


There she goes

She's walking by

And she can't

Even see

That I love her

More than anything.


There are places in my mind

I wanna go with you

Things I can't do

All by myself

Memories to make

And a life to share

I've just got to make

It there.


I came as soon as I heard

Will she be okay?

Is she near the river

Often?

What was different about today?

I've lost a part of me.


I kept hoping I'd be

The one he'd hold for all

Eternity.

Why'd I have to fall

And sink down deep?

Never a chance for him and me.


There are places in my mind

I wanna go with you

Things I can't do

All by myself

Memories to make

And a life to share

Won't I ever make

It there?


My heart said

I was wrong

But my head

Wouldn't listen.

All he's got

Left of me

Is a big gray slab of stone.

I wish I had known-----


The years go by and night by night

I lie in my bed.

I can't seem to get her voice

Or pretty face out of my head.

I'm breathing on my own.

I wish I'd known.


There are places in my mind

I wanna go with you

Things I can't do

All by myself

Memories to make

And a life to share

But we never made

it there.


She haunts my dreams

Both day and night

And each and every time

I just wish I could forget

That I never made him mine.


'Cause there were

Places in my mind.

I had to go

With her.

Things that I can't do all by myself

And memories we should have made

And a life we could have shared

But we never made it there.


There are places in my mind

I'll never go with you

Things you'll have to do

All by yourself.

Memories to make

And a life to share

But we never made


No we never made

No we never made

No we never made

No we never

No we never made

It there.
