days almost done
quite a ways to go now
I'd tell the sun
to stay up
but its low now
still, we're gonna get there
get there
get there

get there
get there
before the sun comes up again

She's taking back what's hers
oh tell me what's the word
for feeling that what could have been
can't be any more
I will get what's mine
I'll be repayed in time
for setting up the hopes of hearts
just to knock them down

I smell her in the air
but she's no longer here
I'm a thousand miles removed
in many different ways
it's trial and it's error
love can be unfair
to lover's who put everything
onto anothers love
I know inside I tried and tried
but it was still not right
How can I be true to yours
if I can't be true to mine?
To never fall in love
that would be a shame
even through a broken heart
there is something gained
separation pains
through time will go away
but playing in the game of hearts
will never be the same
y
you might scream the lies the lies
until your face is red
but meaning comes to change through time
until we reach an end
enjoy the open skies
i hope you will be free
i hope you will be fortunate
in love and honesty
if i should pass you by
many miles on
maybe we can share a cup
for love that has moved on
Girl I must go, on my own way.
Now you must know,
I cannot stay
I'm leaving you for good.

caught myself looking through a notebook
written in my messy hand
found some things i said about you
i just didn't understand
i guess you never can get some things back
if it was me or you its all the past
i guess you never can get some things back
i know i've tried
i seem to stay up with the moonlight
when i've got something on my mind
my mind just races in the darkness
to the constant beat of time
i hear the ticking of a clock now
i see you dancing in the night
i see the rain out on the street now
i see you slipping out of sight
its like
midnight rain
