Lyrics
The days of love have long been gone, they seem so far away
Like a black and white home movie, that?s finally seen it?s day
Your whispers in the night were something I always longed to hear
But they faded into angry words, the threats I learned to fear
But I will cross any mountain, I will sail through the sea
I?ll do what I have to, I will fight to be me
I will tear out love?s arrow that is piercing my heart
Only to realize my life has a brand new start
My life has a brand new start
There was nowhere I could run to, nothing I could do
To escape from my own feelings, of ever loving you
Trapped in insecurity, I never thought I?d leave
But the smell of my sweet freedom was the answer to my plea
But I will cross any mountain, I will sail through the sea
I?ll do what I have to, I will fight to be me
I will tear out love?s arrow that is piercing my heart
Only to realize my life has a brand new start
My life has a brand new start
I?ve replayed all those happy times, over again
I?ve silenced the chaos and I blamed it on a trend
But when I finally had the courage to stand up and leave
I realized it was always there, the strength to set me free
But I will cross any mountain, I will sail through the sea
Do what I have to, I will fight to be me
I will tear out love?s arrow that is piercing my heart
Only to realize my life has a brand new start
My life has a brand new start
My life, it has a brand new start
My life, it has a brand new start
