I wish I could cut you off   I wish I could smother the flame   another sweet memory dies   and this is the part where you say   We're better off nothing      I know i'll never find you   it's my fault   i wanted more than you were willing to give      take me take me   this wouldn't turn out right   if you weren't here tonight      all desperate plans are dropped   and i'm left with an empty hand   soon i'll breathe new air   but not without these tired lungs   so now i'm without you      i'll never find you   it's my fault   i wanted more than you were willing to give      take me take me   this wouldn't turn out right   if you weren't here tonight      goodbye, things would rather end   than go on, so go on      soon i'll breathe new air   but not without these tired lungs   (the heart may be wounded   but the eyes approve of you)      take me take me   this wouldn't turn out right   if you weren't here tonight      this wouldn't turn out right   if you weren't here tonight   goodbye, things would rather end   than go on, so go on
