Sat on the rooftop
Watching the birds flying free
Watching the clouds walk
Watching the rain become the sea
Hearing my love talk
In every breathe she ever breathes
Like it was supposed to be
Like that

But then we broke up
She went west and I went east
She got a new boyfriend
A little too soon if your asking me
But I've heard that she loves him
A little bit more than she'll ever love me
And it was always supposed to be
Like that

I looked to the skyline
Said, how many falls until fly
Looked to the old times
I said, how many wrongs until I'm right
Because I know that's its tough now
But is love always, love always this unkind

So I sat on the rooftop
Watching the birds flying free
Watching the clouds walk
Watching the rain become the sea
And just for a moment
Just for a moment I felt so free...
Like it was always supposed to be
Like that
