Pendulum
Lyrics by:
Oksana Maradyn
I know there’s a reason I met you when I did
I was just thinking ‘bout going back to him
But some strong power stepped in and said no
It turned me one-eighty and said; here you go
And we laughed and we fell in love
And we talked in ways that I only dreamed of
It was magic I deserved
What I needed to learn that I…
I never wanted to leave him; I never wanted to go
But I was crying out for a time to find me and, and he could never let me go
And now all I want to do is love you, but I’m stuck in yesterday
Jumping in with both feet is harder than just to say and
Gonna need some time to let my pendulum swing
But I’ll meet you in the middle; yeah I’ll meet you in the middle of everything
I know there’s a day when I’ll stop wishing he was you
Wishing he thinks and says and does the things you do
And I’ll stop crying when you’re not like him in every way
You see, I’m just used to being treated that way
And we cried and we fell in love
And you held me how I only dreamed of
It was magic I deserved
What I needed to learn that I…
I never wanted to leave him; I never wanted to go
But I was crying out for a time to find me and, and he could never let me go
And now all I want to do is love you, but I’m stuck in yesterday
Jumping in with both feet is harder than just to say and
Gonna need some time to let my pendulum swing
But I’ll meet you in the middle; yeah I’ll meet you in the middle of everything, of everything
I don’t want to go back it’ll just be the same but I keep messing up and using his name
Oh I just want to look in your eyes and see who you are
Oh I just want to feel that letting go when you first fall in love and forget what you know
When I met you I was where I wanted to be for the first time
While you’ve been such a friend I’ve been back and forth
And you’re patiently letting this run its course
And I thank you for letting me go oh cause you know that I
I never wanted to leave him; I never wanted to go
But I was crying out for a time to find me and. and he could never let me go
And now all I want to do is love you, but I’m stuck in yesterday
Jumping in with both feet is harder than just to say and
Gonna need some time to let my pendulum swing
But I’ll meet you in the middle; yeah I’ll meet you in the middle
Oh I’ll meet you in the middle of everything
