Lyrics

Can you feel my wounded heart
Reaching out where you are
Used to seem to know my thoughts
Near or far, near or far

So where do I go from here?
Now that we've broken clear

I know I'm not going back
Back to the love that we had
Swore I would never leave
But I don't believe in us now

Used to feel a faith so strong
What went wrong?
What went wrong?

Used to feel that we belonged
Now you're gone
Now you're gone

And where do I go from here?
After these tails and tears

I know I'm not going back
Back to the love that we had
Swore I would never leave
But I don't believe in us now

Neither one is to blame
Still I'm sorrowed and shamed


And I know I'm not going back
Back to the love that we had
Swore I would never leave
But I don't believe

And I'm not going back
Back to the love that we had
Swore I would never leave
But I don't believe in us now

Swore I would never leave
But I don't believe in us now
