streets are dark and empty nowtime for another dayI walk alone collecting my thoughtsthat have gone astrayall of the memories, all of the dreamsstill remains entwinedall that we've heard, and all that we've knownforgotten by your mindI only wanted someone to believe inoh but your words they're seldom foundcause when it comes to the problemsthat were meant to be sharedyou were not aroundoh but you plead with me nowyou always stayyou'll give it in one breath thenyou'll take it all awaywhat is this lovethat holds me captive in your eyeswell I wish I had the strengthto leave it all behindwhat's done is doneand you do not give a damnjust another heartfelt blowby your careless handI never thought in my life I could feel so much paintrusting in your kindI never thought I could feel so alonefaith in love so blindBut after all is said and donethe song remains the sameyou please yourself and nobody elsewill you ever change?oh but you plead with me nowyou always stayyou'll give it in one breath thenyou'll take it all awaywhat is this lovethat holds me captive in your eyeswell I wish I had the strengthto leave it all behindwhat's done is doneand you do not give a damnjust another heartfelt blowby your careless hands
