I just cant believe your gone, still waitin for mornin to come, when i see if the sun will
Rise,in the way that your by my side, oooo where we had so much in store, tell me what is it
All reaching for, when were through building memories il hold yesterday in my heart, in my heart

[Chorus]
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they can take the music that wel never play, all
The broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they
Can take the future that wel never know they can take the places that we said we will go, all
The broken dreams take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday

You always choose to stay, i should be thankful for everyday, heaven knows what the future
Holds, or least where the story goes, i never believed untill now, i know il see you again im
Sure, no its not selfish to ask for more, one more night one more day one more smile on your
Face but they cant take yesterday,

[Chorus]
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they take the music that wel never play, all the
Broken dreams take everythin, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they can
Take the future that wel never know, they can take the places that we said we will go, all the
Broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday.

I thought our days would last forever, but it wasnt our destiny, coz in my mind we had so much
Time, but i was so wrong, no i can believe me i can still find the strengh in the moments we
Made im lookin back on yesterday

[Repeat chorus]

It’s been the longest winter without you
I didn’t know where to turn to
See somehow I can’t forget you
After all that we’ve been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who’s there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realise that I really didn’t know
If you didn’t notice you mean everything
Quickly I’m learning to love again
All I know is I’m gon’ be ok

[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn’t live without you
It’s gonna hurt when it heals too
It’ll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I’m gonna smile cause I deserve to
It’ll all get better in time

I couldn’t turn on the TV
Without something there to remaind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I’m dreaming don’t wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that’s the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn’t notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I’m learning to love again
All I know is I’m gon’ be ok

[Chorus:]
Thought I couldn’t live without you
It’s gonna hurt when it heals too
It’ll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I’m gonna smile cause I deserve to
It’ll all get better in time

Since there’s no more you and me
It’s time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I’ll be fine without you
Yes I will

[Chorus: X2]
Thought I couldn’t live without you
It’s gonna hurt when it heals too
It’ll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I’m gonna smile cause I deserve to
It’ll all get better in time

Waiting here
For you to call me
For you to tell me
That everything’s a big mistake

Waiting here
In this rainfall
Feeling so small
This dream was not suppose to break

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

In this cold
I’m walking aimless
Feeling helpless
Without a shelter from the storm

In my heart
I miss you so much
I’m missing your touch
And the bed that used to be so warm

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

My, My baby
I’m sorry
Oh

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

People say love
Comes and goes, but
They don’t understand
What they don’t know
Cause, what I feel starts
Deep inside
It’s planted like a seed
That springs into life

They say it’s not right
And we move too fast
But they don’t know the meaning
Of what we have

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in our way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

When you’re far and
We’re apart
I’m really missing you
I wanna be where you are

They say it’s not right (it’s not right)
And it won’t last (it won’t last)
No point believing
What we have

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
I’ll be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in my way

And if you’re lost
I’m gonna find you
‘Cause without you
I’ll break down and cry
And you know why
I wanna surround you
With all my love

[Choir joins, ad libs from Leona]

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in my way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

Closed off from love
I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you’re frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone’s looking round
Thinking I’m going crazy

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing’s greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it’s draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I’ll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
