Dm
It went right by me
At the time it went over my head
      A#
I was looking out the window
               G
I should have looked at your face instead
Dm
It went right by me
Just another wall
       A#
There should have been a moment
         G
When we let our barriers fall
Dm
I never meant what you're thinking
That's not what I meant at all

Chorus:
Dm
Well, I guess we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
F
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Am
Some of them learned as a child
Dm
The things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
F
Time will do its healing
Am
You've got to let it go

Closed for my protection
Open to your scorn
Between these two directions
My heart is sometimes torn
I lie awake with my secrets
Spinning around my head
Something that somehow escaped me
Something you shouldn't have said
I was looking out the window
I should have looked at your face instead

Chorus:
Well, I guess we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Some of them learned as a child
The things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
Time will do its healing
You've got to let it go
Let it go

I find no absolution
In my rational point of view
Maybe some things are instinctive
But there's one thing you could do
You could try to understand me
I could try to understand you
You could try to understand me
I could try to understand you

Chorus:
Well, I guess we all have these feelings
We can't leave unreconciled
Some of them burned on our ceilings
Some of them learned as a child
The things that we're concealing
Will never let us grow
Time will do its healing
You've got to let it go
