I wish I could cut you off

I wish I could smother the flame

another sweet memory dies

and this is the part where you say

We're better off nothing



I know i'll never find you

it's my fault

i wanted more than you were willing to give



take me take me

this wouldn't turn out right

if you weren't here tonight



all desperate plans are dropped

and i'm left with an empty hand

soon i'll breathe new air

but not without these tired lungs

so now i'm without you



I know i'll never find you

it's my fault

i wanted more than you were willing to give



take me take me

this wouldn't turn out right

if you weren't here tonight



goodbye, things would rather end

than go on, so go on



soon i'll breathe new air 

but not without these tired lungs

(the heart may be wounded

but the eyes approve of you)



take me take me

this wouldn't turn out right

if you weren't here tonight



this wouldn't turn out right

if you weren't here tonight

goodbye, things would rather end

than go on, so go on
