Before the worst The Script

It’s been a while since the two of us talked
About a week since the day that you walked
Knowing things would never be the same
With your empty heart and mine full of pain

So explain to me, how it came to this
Let’s take it back to the night we kissed
It was Dublin city on a Friday night
With vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night

We were sitting with our backs against the world
Saying things that we thought but never heard
Who would have thought it would end up like this?

But everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on
Was trying to take it back before it all went wrong

Before the worst
Before we met
Before our hearts decided it’s time to love again
Before today
Before too long
Let’s try and take it back before it all went wrong

There was a time that we’d stay up all night
Best friends, yeah, talking til the daylight
Took the joys alongside the pain
With not much to lose but so much to gain

Are you hearing me? Cuz I don’t wanna miss
That you would drift on memory bliss
It was Grafton street, on a rainy night
I was down on one knee and you were mine for life

We were thinking we would never be apart
With your name tattooed across my heart
Who would have thought it would end up like this?

But everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on
Was trying to take it back before it all went wrong

Before the worst
Before we met
Before our hearts decided it’s time to love again
Before today
Before too long
Let’s try and take it back before it all went wrong

For some reason this song has resonated in my heart. Its captured my attention and sat in the back of mind all day.

Maybe its the piano rif, maybe its the melody, maybe its the lyrics. I dont know but its stuck. Its not about my husband. I dont know whats caught me. But tears come grieving over something I don't understand.

I thought about people I have lost and others I wish I knew better... some I think of all the time but also family I have adopted. How many times have we tried to take back things? It never works! We cant. Words are spoken and they stay in the hearts of those who heard them....

I think so much has gone wrong... I can't fix it, I just watch it getting worse... My own live, others in my life... it just gets worse and I feel like I'm watching it in slow motion.

I remember a time when I was happy, not a care in the world, I didnt drink, I didnt worry. It was a long time ago. Before I screwed it up... Maybe I dont remember it. Maybe it was just a dream.. I dont know. I think of my daughter and hope to God that I don't screw this up... I will not forgive myself if I did.
