Amel Larrieux Unanswered Question Lyrics

Unanswered Question Lyrics

they speak of jobs and positions 

who's seeing who, who's settled down 

they casually mention your name 

the power in the a word's insane 

how it triggers everything to come tumbling down 



into the pit of my stomach 

boulders and butterflies coexist 

that chemical reaction shared by all romantics 

threatens to persist 



chorus 

and this 

unanswered question 

lingers on 

to this later date 

can i resign 

to never knowing 

if i was your one that got away 



the back and forth, the on and off 

the "don't call anymore" 

the leaving, the wishing i had stayed 

a self inflicted prison i (wanna'/won't)? escape 

like if i did the memories would decay 



and there'd be no more hours of dreaming 

bout what a life with you (could) have been 

that chemical reaction shared by all romantics 

has some twisted need to exist 



Bridge 



say you feel nothing when you see me 

say that where i walk ,flowers have grown 

say that i rocked your world 

say that i was never your girl 

just give me somethin' 

give me somethin' i can put in stone 



chorus
