I can't believe it's over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I'd only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying

Summer turned to winter
And the snow, it turned to rain
And the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognized the girl you are today

And God I hope it's not too late
It's not too late
'Cause you are not alone
I'm always there with you

And we'll get lost together
'Til the light comes pouring through
'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won

Babe, you're not lost
When your world's crashing down
And you cannot bear the cross
I said, baby, you're not lost

Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you've gone crazy
But you're not

Things have seem to changed
There's one thing that's still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly, fly, fly away

'Cause you are not alone
And I am there with you
And we'll get lost together
'Til the light comes pouring through

'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When the world's crashing down
And you can not bear to crawl

I said, baby, you're not lost, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost, ooh, yeah, yeah
I said, baby, you're not lost

    I sing this song to myself all the time. I broke up with an my boyfriend of 10months and he's moved on and i'm stuck in a rut. I used to be such a happy person but now i feel lost. However i'm determined to change and get the old Bex back & i sing this to myself to remind me that no matter how lonely i feel i'm not alone because i have all my friends that love me lots.

    "If i dont land" should be "If i'd only knew" "And you can't bear to fall" should be "And you can't bear the thought" :)

    I loved this song from the moment i heard it... it came out 4 months after my dad passed away and i cried the first time i heard it because it made me think of him... anytime I'm missing my dad, I listen to this song... it makes me feel like he's watching over me... great job Michael!

    i can completely relate to this song. its almost like there are two people who were in love once, and it just didnt work out at the time. but now, they are past their troubles and are just promising to be there for each other. "I can't believe it's over I watched the whole thing fall And I never saw the right man was on the wall If I don't land Days were slipping past That the good things never last That you were crying" they broke up, and he didn't do anything. he didnt see how she was hurting, he just let it slip by and didn't step up and become the man he should have been he says "I hardly recognized the girl you are today And god I hope it's not too late" and i think it means that she is different than when they were together, but he still wants to be friends and be there for her, like when he sings "'Cause you are not alone And I am there with you And we'll get lost together" he's offering her that escape again, offering to be there whether its as a friend or something more i absolutely love this song, it completely relates to me and his voice is just amazing. it makes me cry
