Lyrics
Here we are
Once again
On the verge
Of the begining of the end
I blame you
You blame me
Eyes wide open
But we're both
Too blind to see
We can't go back
We can't undo
We can't ignore the stormy weather
We've been through
But even with
The wind and rain
I'd go back and do it
All again
In my heart
There's a flame
That could never
Be extinguished by the pain
It won't die
Won't fade away
It'd be like trying to have the night
Without the day
My one hope
To see this through
Is that this fire also burns
Inside of you
So even though
We won't change
I'd go back and
Do it all again
Looking back on all the memories
All that we've been through
It's a wonder that we ever survived
Right now we feel defeated
By the rocky road we're on
Cause the path is litered by the disaponintments
in our lives
We can't go back
We can't undo
We can't ignore
The stormy weather we've been through
But even with
The wind and rain
I'd go back and
Do it all again
