The day is getting on and I thought I'd let you go You assumed it could never go wrong with so much that you didn't know Now don't think you've pulled the wool out from under my eyes... This evening lover you're in for the biggest surprise. We're getting ready and we've just begun Turn it up baby, sing it on and on and on.... Chorus: Hold me, help me, be with you - uh uh, oh oh oh You don't see half of what you put me through - uh uh, oh oh oh Show me, teach me, tell the truth - uh uh, oh oh oh Maybe we can do what we know we have to do.......... hitting the streets tonight! Time is running out and so is what's left of me Three strikes you're out and all our opportunities They say that love is blind but then its black.... Once you're gone you're gone and there will be no coming back. Almost finished and we're starting to end Sing it right now, sing it over and over again... Chorus. Repeat Chorus

You say I'm blind but I clearly see all the mix signals that you rush past me It might be such a while ago all the missing pieces are now starting to show Now I think the time has come End a competition that no ones won Time to shut it down.. and move on Did you ever think that you'd be alone living in a house that you can't call home just wish I could take it all back opposites don't even attract I wear my heart on my sleeve it tells me never to believe pick up my keys.. and then I leave I know you've had it rough. But now I've have had enough....... Chorus: Oh, Oh, Oh - you don't seem to understand Oh, Oh, Oh - I'm not gonna be that man The lies, the secrets, that things that I know Your touch, your love, now where did that go If I needed you here you wouldn't show Never swallowed such a bitter pill Never felt so good that it made me ill Could you count cause I've lost track I was going forwards, you were going back We had the piece of mind Dreaming that it would be fine The clocks just died.. we're out of time Had I known this was just a game I would of known I was one to blame Hold back or call it a day Take those plans of mine and put them at bay You no Mercedes you're no Rolls Royce I'm pretty sure you had a choice but you didn't listen to your own voice I know you've had it rough. But now I've had enough. Chorus. "Couple of years had gone by. One day I saw you crossing the streets. We caught eyes and I said hello. You looked and then pretended I wasn't really there. You then started to walk a bit faster. And I must admit I was surprised. You headed towards the bus station. Me, I just stood there, like a mug, whilst asking myself... why can't she still let go of it?" Chorus (x2) Oh, Oh, Oh - you wouldn't show Had enough....

Drop it, don't put it about I got the invite and its something to shout It doesn't matter, cuz you won't quit I got ya beats and the flavor and I'm on top of it Whatever reason, I don't like to say I'm feeling caution, so I'm staying away Hopes and madness, tend to stick to you So open up baby, ya know I'll be the glue to your life. Chorus: Intensified - so won't you jump on and take the ride? All my dreams have been certified Ghetto Blaster 89 - is classified Pay attention, and lend me your ear You lost your vision, so I'll make it real clear We got to focus, and I've got your back Gonna have to find a way to put ya back on track Its never faultless, just the way that its done No scoring points here, we've only just begun Simple subtraction, and there's nothing to fear So give in to the reason, it hasn't been your year, now shine bright! Chorus. Stand up, don't be a waste We're always learning, we all have our place Face the music, and dig the sound You're gonna be the person that you'd have around It's optimism, and it don't take much I got the power son, and you got the touch True survivor, you'll see how it handles Learning faster than Molly and her sixteen candles and that's right! Chorus.

I can hear the silence, and see the shadows of your soul. Always here and thinking, trying not to let go... See time can change it, every single little thing, when you don't know how it ends. Take comfort cause I'll be there, and I'll always be your friend... Chorus: Driving in my car, I see a lucky star, reminds me how to believe. When I see your face, I'm in a special place. We've got our dreams and memories. We can talk it overnight, we can try and clear the air. I could leave this with you, but you know that's just not fair... Can you keep a track of.. all the struggles and endless, useless fears? To say we go back, I've lost count of all the years. Repeat Chorus Don't be weak.. Don't let go.. Turn around.. and walk forward. See it now.. Be the one.. Make it work.. keep moving on. - REPEAT CHORUS - - REPEAT CHORUS -
