E
Speak to me
You're walkin' closer
          A
And it's hard to breathe
I should be runnin'
         E
But the hearts naive
                  A
And I expect too much

You were good to me
I left a scar that no one else can see
And now you're back here
And reminding me that I lost way too much

         B
Do you know that night
                 A
I almost said I loved you
        B
And you almost said it back

Chorus:
E
Are we gonna be more than a memory
G#m
No matter how lame my apology
C#m
I let go of you
B
You let go of me
A
Are we gonna be more than a memory
E
Are you gonna just stand in front of me
G#m
Pretending I'm not your destiny
C#m
I'm not over you
B
Are you over me
A
Are we gonna be more than a memory

C#m
I'm not over you
B
Are you over me
A
Are we gonna be more than a memory

Say my name (My name)
'Cause no one else can say it quite the same
(The same)
It takes me back to your September days
I've missed you way too much
(Too much, too much, too much)

If I was cruel to you
Well, just to hear it, breaks my heart in two
(In two)
If there's a way to make it up to you
I wanna change so much, you know I do

And know that night I almost said I loved you
(Loved you, loved you, loved you)
And you almost said it back?

Chorus

  B
Stay with me
                   A
I really need to hear you breathe
    B
If words can't speak
               A
Lay your body next to me

Chorus:
Are we gonna be more than a memory?
(More than a memory)
No matter how lame my apology (Lame my apology)
I let go of you, you let go of me
Are we gonna be more than a memory?
Are you gonna just stand in front of me
(Stand in front of me)
Pretending I'm not your destiny?
(Not your destiny)
I'm not over you, are you over me?
Are we gonna be more than a memory?

More than a memory
Lame my apology
I'm not over you, are you over me?
Are we gonna be more than a memory?
