Lyrics
All for you
I fell down to you
All my life to see
What I could not be
It was all for you
I fell down to you
Why did you tell me
You would wait?
Oh, you're miles away
On down the road
I lay upon the ground tonight
Did you even see me fall?
You left me in darkness
Broken after your kiss
I can still feel your breath
Nothing for us now
So you just drive on an on
Oh, you're miles, so gone
On down the road
Under the sky at night alive
Should've never crossed your path
But I could not resist
Reaching out for your kiss
Then you took my last breath
You're never coming home
And you just drive on and on
No one said you would wait for me
