Never settle down

Oh my goodness!
How could this be?
You mean so much to me,
But I'd never let you be free.

You're always moving up.
You'd never settle down.
It wasn't meant to be.

I thought I could break on through,
But I wasn't strong enough for you.
I never felt like such a fool.
You never really wanted
Anything anyway,
Or at least not anymore.

You're always moving up.
You'd never settle down.
It's just who you are.

Everyday I look for your face
To see your eyes through my shades.
It's too late to lose my facade.
No point in falling away
Nothing for me anyway.

You just slipped through
My finger tips
I couldn't hold onto you
Not even with a frown.
You're always moving up.
You'd never settle down.
It wasn't meant to be.
It was never up to me.

You'd never settle down.
You'd never settle down,
And you'd always slip away.
