speak now is like. i was a flight risk with a fear of falling. youâre the kind of reckless that should send me running. it turns out freedom ainât nothing but missing you. donât say yes, run away now. iâll look back in regret how i ignored when they said run as fast as you can. someday iâll be living in a big old city. iâd tell you i miss you but i donât know how. itâs so much colder than i thought it would be so i tuck myself in and turn my nightlight off. these are the words i held back as i was leaving too soon. wasn't it easier when you believed in everything? it's getting dark and it's all too quiet and i can't trust anything now. and something reminds you, you wish you had stayed. but if, god forbid, fate should step in and force us into a goodbye, if you have children someday, when they point to the pictures, please tell them my name.
