It's Just Not There (Holdcroft / Shearer)

  • LIVE

    • We felt like soulmates
    It felt like it was down to fate
    You felt like the female version of me
    Yes it felt like it was destiny
    Looking at the facts
    There shouldn't have been any cracks
    Even though there's so much we share
    It's just not there

    We have so much in common
    It reminds me of so much I've forgotten
    You're the best person to happen to me
    And yet my heart refuses all possibilities
    Why can't I let you into my heart?
    Why do I have to keep us apart?
    It's, it's not fair
    But it's just not there



    I know I keep hanging on to an old love
    It's made you feel that you're not good enough
    But it's not that you've done anything wrong
    It's just that I still love that stupid girl that's long gone
    There's no spark
    No lightening in my heart
    It's not that I compare
    But It's just not there



    The longer that we go on
    The more your pain is prolonged
    When I say those words of love
    They don't quite ring true enough
    Making love without the right emotions
    Just means that we're going through the motions



    God knows that we've been trying
    But it can't be right if you keep on crying
    I was hoping in time things would change
    But still my heart still remains the same
    I don't regret a thing
    But still there's something missing
    I wish I could answer your prayers
    But it's just not there
    I wish I could answer your prayers
    But it's just not there
    I wish I could answer your prayers
    But It's just not there
