Once I never could hope to win,
You starting down the road leaving me again,
The threats you made were meant to cut me down,
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now.
Once I never could hope to win,
You starting down the road leaving me again,
The threats you made were meant to cut me down,
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now.
Lookin’ like a true survivor,
Feelin’ like a little kid.
I'm still standing after all this time,
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
The young lie with their guitars
The old lie for a little respect.
I've lied to lie with danger
I've lied for a drug or two
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you.
Oh, it must be hard for the likes of you
To get by in a world that you just can't see through,
And it looks so cold.
How does it feel to know you can't go home?
Take love for better, take love for worse,
But never ever take love for granted,
Make love and promise it will always be
More than just a memory of...
I see couples walking down the street:
I watch them here
With tear filled eyes there's nothing left for me,
For I just think about the times,
That you and I were two,
And still these things remind me of you,
Oh they do...
Hey Nikita is it cold,
In your little corner of the world?
You could roll around the globe,
And never find a warmer soul to know.
You are my weakness,
You are my friend.
Nothing I have in the world,
Makes better sense.
'Cause I'm the fish and you're the sea
When we're together
Or when we're apart
There's never a space in-between
The beat of our hearts,
'Cause I'm the apple and you're the tree.
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are.
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer,
That we've got this far.
And can you feel the love tonight?
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best...
And if there comes a time,
Guns and gates no longer hold you in,
And if you're free to make a choice,
Just look towards the west and find a friend.
