Not in my control
A looming star in the night
A sparkle waiting to ignite
A smile just waiting to happen
Havent seen it in a while
We havent seen you laugh in a while
Things have turned for the worse and I miss you
The way you used to be, the way I used to see you
I still wish I was there
Because things change and we cant postpone the future
It's just not in my control
But we learn to ride the waves forever together
All I'll be right by your side
Through thick or thin, lose or win
Through rain or snow, you choose
But things just change and we cant postpone the future
Its just not in my control
You are the brightest spark I know
But one day you chose to say no
We still dont know if that was a mistake
We're still waiting, to see if we'll pay
You used to giggle and smile
Something we havent seen in a while
I miss the way we used to be, when everything seemed as simple as could be
Because things change and we cant postpone the future
It's just not in my control
But we learn to ride the waves forever together
All I'll be right by your side
Through thick or thin, lose or win
Through rain or snow, you choose
But things just change and we cant postpone the future
Its just not in my control
I miss everything about you
The smile, the laughs, the jokes and the cries
Yet I still wouldnt change a single thing
Because you, are mine
I miss the way we used to sleep
Happily, without having to count sheep
And every single day I weep, imagining what could be
Because things change and we cant postpone the future
It's just not in my control
But we learn to ride the waves forever together
All I'll be right by your side
Through thick or thin, lose or win
Through rain or snow, you choose
But things just change and we cant postpone the future
Its just not in my control
But things just change and we cant postpone the future
Its just not in my control

I was inspired by a relationship I had to write this. We cared so much about each other, but when he suffered from depression, a lot changed and I and our friends gave him space to allow him to cope, while at the same time supporting him. He's getting there, but I dont know if our relationship would ever be the same, which is why I wrote this song.
