Hey you
You should do what you wanna do
Go see someone new
I know that you want to
I said, I said all I can say
I turned it inside out and I failed to make you stay
You, you are in such a hurry
You couldn’t have run any faster
And I don’t wanna sink any lower
And now as time moves on tell me
Who are those tears for?
And when you’re making eyes with the pretty girls
Who do you die for?
The only thing, the only thing I ever wanted
Was for you to be brave
Was for you to be strong
I know it´s a tall order and I know
I push too hard it´s because I know
That life ain´t gonna give you a free card
You wanna stand still and I´m getting ready to jump
You ain´t got no shoes to fill and I don´t ever
wanna stop
Oh but I love you
I love you regardless
Oh I love you I love I love
I love you regardless
I would’ve taken on the fight
I would’ve fought through the night
I would’ve burnt down your old school
I would’ve slapped your dad around
For every time he made you feel bad about yourself
My love would be like wings on your shoulders
Soar you up into the sky
Where we would hide among the melancholy clouds
But you are in such a hurry
You couldn’t have run any faster
And I don’t wanna sink any lower
Any lower
Any lower
Can’t love you any lower
Can’t make a fool of myself no more
While you´re out there doing your thing
While you´re out there doing what you wanna do
So go on and do it
You go see that new girl
Find new happiness
And ask no questions
But tell me
Who, who do you seem to be dying for
Why, what are you crying for
Tell me
Who, who are you dying for
Seems it was my heart you tore apart
So you go do what you wanna do
You´ve got your arm around my shoulder
Feels strange but familiar
You´ve been looking my way
Like you got something to say
I waited for this for such a long time
For you to come and say you wanna be mine
So play out your charade
I´ll even let you think you just might get laid
If you look over your shoulder you´ll see
Yeah that´s my new man
My new man
That one standing over there
Yeah that´s my new man
My new man
Don´t I look good to you right about now
And I ran around town looking for you
My pride was in the lost and found
I must’ve looked like such a fool
Even when I tried to play it cool
So I´m really enjoying this moment
You´re looking at me like I´m heaven sent
I hold you to no blame
But tonight you can watch me
Watch me standing over there
Over there
Yeah with my new man
My new man
That´s us standing over there
Yeah that’s my new man
My new man
I´ll be going home with him tonight
Yeah that´s my new man
My new man
You´ll be going home tonight
Dream of me
And I´ll be with my new man
It´s come to an end
What we were is gone
Eyes dark
Hearts cold
We tried our best now let’s put it to rest
We just went too far
We pulled our guns and started to fire
And we even called love a liar
It’s gonna be hard and I have to be strong
When the winter is long and I feel that it´s wrong
When all I want is you
A week goes by and the wind picks up
I wonder what´s instored for me for when I get
off the floor
We just went too far
We kept our hearts in jar
Oh and we even called love a liar
It´s gonna be hard and I have to strong
When the winter is long and I feel that it´s wrong
When all I want is you
I stare into his back as he walks away from me
All along I knew this is how it would be
There´s a band with songs that you can dance to
Tonight I´m not gonna cry over you
Hey Mr Drummer would you please play harder
So I don´t hear my thoughts
Hey baby doll would you please sing louder
So I can drown in your voice
And tonight no words are spoken
Tonight I´m not heartbroken
And I´m gonna be alright
I´m gonna be alright
When we got up that morning I could see
That I wouldn´t be phoning
You wouldn´t be seeing more of me
It´s so easy to fall you’re as lonely as the wind
Come saturday night I´ll take on the fight
And the drums beating on my toes
And I´m dancing to rock n´roll
And I’m alright
And you´ll see you´ll see
That I´m alright
And I´m alright
I´m just alright
I´m gonna be alright
I´m gonna be alright
I´m gonna be just fine
The night is coming to an end
Can I have one last dance
Stand close to you and pretend
Give this rite of passage one last kiss
You smell so good
Your t-shirt is damp with sweat
Let me take you home
Let me take it off
I have nothing to hide behind
There´s no way out
No escape
From life and loss
It´s all connected and intertwined
And you are dancing
And the song is ending
And I am failing
I am drunk and lost for words
There´s nothing to stand on
I´ll go home and lick my wounds
I´ll start forgetting
I´ll start forgetting
There´s no way out
No escape
From life and loss
It´s all connected
And intertwined
I´ll just have to trust the good and accept the bad
Mourn what I once had and get out of bed
