Look back loneliness, you won't see me behind you   Hey, now emptiness, no more leading the way   Go on desperateness, I don't need you beside me, no more      Come on happiness, I can feel you gaining ground   Hey, now foolishness, I might keep you around   Go on emptiness, I won't look behind me, no more      I don't rule you out   I know you're there   But I'm on to you now      That's why, I won't be down very long   That's why, I'll be all right from now on   That's why, I get stronger every time   That's why, I know this heart will survive after you're gone      You know I believe, all we really have is time   No use worrying, no use wondering why   'Cause through it all, we're only here to laugh and cry      It's meant to be, that failure only brings another way   Every heartache always has another day   Come on loneliness, I don't need to hide you, no more      I don't rule you out   I know you're there   But I'm on to you now      That's why, I won't be down very long   That's why, I'll be all right from now on   That's why, I get stronger every time   That's why, I know this heart will survive after you're gone      I don't rule you out   I know you're there   But I'm on to you now      That's why, I won't be down very long   That's why, I'll be all right from now on   That's why, I get stronger every time   That's why, I know your soul will survive      That's why, I won't be down very long   That's why, I'll be all right from now on   That's why, I get stronger every time   That's why
