A thousand others tried and failed   But you were left holding the bag   For the sake of the commonwealth   I surrendered for my health   And absolutely nothing's wrong today   Will nothing ever change?   Are we doomed to live this way   Existing day by day      Oh, no   I wake   To the light of a sunny day   Oh, no   I let go   If you come back I don't want to know      A thousand days to forget your face   But I will always mark your place   Breathe the air of distant lands   You always drift back in the end   And absolutely nothing looks the same   Absolutely nothing's changed   Are we doomed to take this ride?   Existing side by side      Oh, no   I wake   To the light of a sunny day   Oh, no   I let go   If you come back I don't want to know      And all the same   You're still coursing through my veins   Any way you are is all right with me   And all these days   You're still coursing through my veins   Any way you are is just fine by me   As long as you're far away      Oh, no   I wake   To the light of a sunny day   Oh, no   I let go   If you come back I don't want to   Oh, no   I wake   To the light of a sunny day   Oh, no   I let go   If you come back I don't want to know
