On the beach, by the bay, saw the sun come up. And as I washed in the waves, couldn't shake the thought. I see you crying and you’re trying to hide it. It hurts, it hurts I know. Like all the feelings I don’t wanna admit, it's easier to let them show. If we're all family then, what is this pain I'm feeling? Can you imagine if we learn to love? If life is short and precious, why would we waste it like this? Can you imagine if we learn to love? Lied in bed, wide awake, as the rain came down. Imagining my mistakes, falling to the ground. I know it's hard to fix a disaster. I wish our hearts could heal so much faster. Love is the only ending we’re after, the only ending that matters. I know we find our ways to disagree. I thought that we would always be family. I hope in time you finally forgive me.
