Don't know if I believe in a God
Don't know if I believe there's not
Don't know if I believe in fate
Don't know if I believe we make our own way
I love, I lose, I scar when I bruise
Well, dear life
Sometimes I feel you carry me
And then I feel you're letting go
No ties, I'm wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I'm in control?
Should I lay back, and let the tide wash over me?
All the fight, dear life
What do you hold from me?
Maybe I should believe what I'm told
Maybe I should believe what glitters is gold
Maybe I should say what's on my mind
Maybe if I keep my mouth shut I'll be fine
I hate, I burn
I bless and curse
Well, dear life
Sometimes I feel you carry me
And then I feel you're letting go
No ties, I'm wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I'm in control?
Should I lay back, and let the tide wash over me?
All the fight, dear life
The only thing I know for sure when I get enough of this life
The only thing I know for sure, we're gonna be alright
The only thing I know for sure when I get enough of this life
The only thing I know for sure, we're gonna be alright
Sometimes I feel you carry me
And then I feel you're letting go
No ties, I'm wild, running free
Am I a fool to think I'm in control?
Should I lay back, and let the tide wash over me?
All the fight, dear life
What do you hold from me?
The whole city's on fast forward
Blink twice and you're in for the race
Not even quite rush hour
And I can't keep up with the pace of it all
The weight of the fall
So we ride the wave
People tripping over my feet
Escalator moving too fast for me
Don't you ever go slowly
You won't ever bring me to my knees
Won't give in
If it's sink or we swim I'll float away
With all these good intentions something's still not right
I've been drowning in possessions clinging on for dear life
Is it enough?
Tell me is it enough?
When you ask yourself the question can you feel it in your bones?
Is it enough?
I don't wanna get political
But when we all pull together we don't fall
Would it be so terrible
If we all held each other so much more than we do?
Am I getting through to you?
Will you break the chain?
Take a minute to consider it
Let go of all we're convinced we need
Together we can make more of this
Together we can do more to walk the same direction
Form a real connection along the way
With all these good intentions something's still not right
I've been drowning in possessions clinging on for dear life
Is it enough?
Tell me is it enough?
When you ask yourself the question do you feel it in your bones?
Is it enough?
When you ask yourself the question do you feel it in your bones?
Are you holding on to something you're afraid of letting go?
Is it enough?
Tell me is it enough?
When you ask yourself the question do you feel it in your bones?
Is it enough?
Is it enough
I've been trying to not think about you lately
Trying to do myself some good
But I'm failing (failing)
Failing (failing)
I've been looking for something else to distract me
Looking for someone who's looking for someone
Worth saving (saving)
Save me (save me)
I feel the beat
Kicking in my chest
Close my eyes and wait
But it's not working yet
I hear the music but I can't dance
I should be moving but I'm stuck
And I need to fight this feeling
So I stay here on the floor
I'm not supposed to love you
Not supposed to love you anymore
I've been looking for you in all these places
Looking for you in all these faces
I push through (push through)
To get through (get through)
I've been trying to lose myself in the light
Trying to find myself in the night
Without you (without you)
Can't find you (find you)
I feel the beat
Kicking in my chest
Close my eyes and wait
But it's not working yet
I hear the music but I can't dance
I should be moving but I'm stuck
And I need to fight this feeling
So I stay here on the floor
I'm not supposed to love you
Not supposed to love you anymore
Don't wanna go home when the lights come up
Don't wanna go home
Don't wanna go home when the lights come up
Don't wanna go home
(Don't wanna go home)
I hear the music but I can't dance
I should be moving but I'm stuck
And I need to fight this feeling
So I stay here on the floor
I'm not supposed to love you
Not supposed to love you anymore
Not supposed to love you anymore
In the morning I miss you, but I won't go back
Step off this train this one way track
You're caught in the distance, but I don't know why?
When you justified your exit signs
It don't matter
Just a memory been and gone
Nature carries on
Pulling me along
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
In a month of Sundays I could take you back
You're in my rear view fading black
Don't know my destination, but I'm on my way
Too long to get here from today
It don't matter
Just a memory been and gone
Nature carries on
Pulling me along
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
And our love is burning in the flames never to return
As the embers start to lose their glow turn to ash and go
Turn to ash and go
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
Something for the fire
For the fire
In the morning I miss you but I won't go back
Step off this train this one way track
This is not your playground, I'm not here for you to shoot me down
Praying on my weakness, even when you're not around
Nothing lasts forever but you're wrapped around my DNA
And I'm hiding in the corner, the wounded kid I was
Like it was yesterday, like nothing's changed
All that you've done, you see,
Ever so quietly comes creeping back up on me
Haunting me, goading me, why can't you let go of me?
I don't have the patience anymore
That's not me, I won't be the version of me (me)
The one you think you're comfortable with (me)
The one you think you had your fun with
If I can't trust myself, why should I trust anyone else?
All that you've done, you see
Ever so quietly comes creeping back up on me
Haunting me, goading me, why can't you let go of me?
I don't have the patience anymore
That's not me, I won't be the version of me (me)
The one you think you're comfortable with (me)
The one you think you had your fun with (me)
That's not me, not me
I won't be the version of me (me)
The one you think you're comfortable with (me)
The one you think you had your fun with
If I can't trust myself, why should I trust anyone else?
I believe starry eyes, with every drop there's a healing
Let it be, let 'em cry, but just don't keep the pain inside, inside
Let go of the pain inside, inside
Don't keep it together, oh, let it run away
Don't hold back the river, let go, let it run away
Before it makes you numb, it will only make you numb
And you won't be numb
Numb
Now you're free, you can fly, can you feel your heart now? It's beating
You'll see paradise, just don't get lost in the pain inside, inside
Let go of the pain inside, inside
Don't keep it together, oh, let it run away
Don't hold back the river, let go, let it run away
Before it makes you numb, it will only make you numb
And you won't be numb
Numb
And you won't be numb
Numb
It will only make you numb
And you won't be
Stumbling down the same old street
That used to be paved with gold
Nothing I see is impressing me
Maybe I'm getting old
I never knew
Hiding around the corner
Was a promise of another road
'Cause when you think is over
You burst open
I'm moving on
Something is telling me now I got room for love
Somebody said "gotta make room for love"
Holding up a sign of "room for love"
You've got enough
Make room for love
(Something is telling me now I got room for love)
(Somebody said "gotta make room for love")
Holding up a sign of "room for love"
You've got enough
Make room for love
Caught up in failed emotion
But nothing is said in stone
Questioning your devotion
Gave me the courage to just let go
I make the move, yeah
'Cause waiting around that corner
Was everything I dreamed coming true
Just when you think is over
You burst wide open
I'll take it all
Something is telling me now I got room for love
Somebody said "gotta make room for love"
Holding up a sign of "room for love"
You've got enough
Make room for love
(Something is telling me now I got room for love)
(Somebody said "gotta make room for love")
Holding up a sign of "room for love"
You've got enough
Make room for love
Let it fill you up
Open up your heart, it will leave you breathless
Make room for love
Let it take you high, you deserve it
Let it fill you up
Open up your heart, it will leave you breathless
Make room for love
Let it take you high, you deserve it
Something is telling me now I got room for love
Somebody said I gotta make room for love
I'm holding up a sign for love
You've got enough
Make room for love
(Let it fill you up)
(Open up your heart, it will leave you breathless)
(Make room for love)
(Let it take you high, you deserve it)
Holding up a sign of "room for love"
You've got enough
Make room for love
Since I met you I've been unravelling
Questioning everything I say or do
All of these words don't mean anything
Nothing means anything when I'm not with you
And the strength that I held in the palm of my hand is slipping
And the sense that I have slowly is melting away
You rocked my world, made me forget myself
I started to learn how I could be somebody else
Discovered the girl I thought I could never be
Now I am hurt, you're leaving for somebody else, oh
I'm not a fool, though I behave like one
Can't help it, I've come undone, too late to turn back
The strength that I held in the grip of my hand is slipping
And the sense that I had almost has melted away
You rocked my world, made me forget myself
I started to learn how I could be somebody else
Discovered the girl I thought I could never be
Now I am hurt, you're leaving for somebody else
I fell in blindly
But love still denies me
I wasn't ready for losing control, oh no
We played by the same rules
You did what you had to
Whatever your reasons I have to let go
But you rocked my world, made me forget myself
I started to learn how I could be somebody else
Discovered the girl I thought I could never be
And now I am hurt, you're leaving but I won't forget
You rocked my world (you rocked my world), made me forget myself
I started to learn (started to learn) how I could be somebody else
Discovered the girl (discovered the girl) I thought I could never be
Now I am hurt, you're leaving for somebody else
Come inside, I'll take your coat
Leave your broken outside, I'll close the door
I know that it's hard to do, being you
It's a lonely road so let me bring you home
Don't look back
Don't you ever give your heartache away
'Cos I got you baby, you can give it all to me
And I'll hold it safely
You know you can count on me
So close your eyes, dive, let go of it all
Believe you will survive, let love break the fall
I won't let go, I won't let go, no
If I'm just here to give you love
Then that's what I'm here to do, to do
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
Don't tell me what I could lose oh oh
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
If I'm loving you
Tonight we can take it slow
You need a shoulder to cry on, let me know
Whatever I gotta do, I'll pull you through it
It's a lonely road but I can bring you home
Don't look back, don't you ever give your heartache away
'Cos I got you baby, you can give it all to me
And I'll hold it safely, you know you can count on me
So close your eyes, dive, let go of it all
Believe you will survive, let love break the fall
I won't let go, I won't let go, no
If I'm just here to give you love
Then that's what I'm here to do, to do
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
Don't tell me what I could lose oh oh
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
If I'm loving you, loving you
Think of nothing darling
Lay down your head, I've got it
For all the things you've done I'll pay you back with love
And don't you worry about the pressure
'Cos I can make it better
Lean on my love
Let me take away your pain
So close your eyes, dive, let go of it all
Believe you will survive, let love break the fall
I won't let go, I won't let go, no
If I'm just here to give you love
Then that's what I'm here to do to do
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
Don't tell me what I could lose oh oh
If I'm loving you better that's cool, cool
If I'm loving you, loving you
In the guise of my protection you claim your innocence
A little time, some reflection
Still doesn't make sense
When it comes to you and me I know we're never gonna change
We could pull apart our history
We'd still be in this place
Here we are going round in circles
We'd best be careful, whoa oh oh oh
There you go doing something hurtful
Do you think that's working? whoa oh oh oh
There's a point of no return but you don't seem to know
There's a time when everybody's gotta let it go
There's a line you can't help but cross
You don't even know what you've done
Do we have the same agenda and do we share the same respect?
There could be a day when I surrender
But you know we're not there yet
Here we are still going round in circles
We'd best be careful, whoa oh oh oh
And there you go doing something hurtful
Do you think that's working? whoa oh oh oh
There's a point of no return but you don't seem to know
There's a time when everybody's gotta let it go
There's a line you can't help but cross
You don't even know what you've done
(You don't even know what you've done)
There you go doing something hurtful
Now do you think that's working? whoa oh oh oh
There's a point of no return but you don't seem to know
There's a time when everybody's gotta let it go
There's a line you can't help but cross
You don't even know what you've done, no
There's a point of no return but you don't seem to know
There's a time when everybody's gotta let it go
There's a line you can't help but cross
You don't even know what you've done, no
You took me on and you nearly took me down
You're never gonna get anywhere
You never really got anywhere
Lost track of times that I have tried to say
Oh, something has to change
I never really got anywhere
Pound for pound we stumble through the rounds
And I'm bruised
Tit for tat, can't ever take it back
We both lose
You're never gonna stop the rain
But you know you're gonna be okay
When you love someone
There'll always be another fight
But you know you're gonna be alright
When you love someone
I'll take the blame since you decided you're the victim
I never meant to let you down
I never really let you down
Don't recognize the things that you remember
Oh life's so different through your eyes
I never meant to let you down, no
Time to time I wonder how we died
Do you?
Day after day, the past is washed away
We're through
You're never gonna stop the rain
But you know you're gonna be okay
When you love someone
There'll always be another fight
But you know you're gonna be alright
When you love someone
It's been the problem all along
You wouldn't hear when I tried to tell you
How can you pretend there was nothing wrong?
Nothing wrong
You're never gonna stop the rain
But you know you're gonna be okay
When you love someone
There'll always be another fight
But you know you're gonna be alright
When you love someone
Don't give up
Don't lose faith
Can't take for granted
It will be ok
Years have faded
And time moves on
I don't want to stand aside
And watch us come undone
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Questions answered
Darkness is clear
Eyes wide open
Flashing all our fears
From the silence
Hope is born
Can we stay together
And welcome a new dawn
I don't wanna walk
I don't wanna walk away
I don't wanna walk
I want you to stay
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Ooh ooh oh
Ooh ooh oh
I never wanted to let you down
So the conversation
In circles round
We could leave it all
And walk away
Wounds may heal
But scars may show
So I'm asking you to
Hold to this love
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
Ooh ooh oh
Ooh ooh oh
Can we hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to this love
