Bitter Regrets

I've had the same dream 
Again and again 
Night after night 
And I spend day after day 
Thinking about what it means 

I'm standing in front of that building 
Looking up to look you in the eyes 
And the words 
That were once stuck in my mouth 
Escaped 
And you looked me in my eyes 
And told me what you never said 

But before those words can escape
I wake up drenched in the same feeling 
Of overwhelming bitterness 
Not bittersweet just bitter 
And regret consumes my mind 

And it's almost been three years 
And maybe I've grown
And we've both matured 
And maybe we left that forever for a reason 
But maybe one day it'll come back to us 
And the words that were stuck in my mind 
Can finally find a way out
