I'm not one for love songs.
The way I'm living makes you feel like giving up
But you don't,
And I want everything for you.
My disappointment
'Cause you've been left behind
And the world has its shine,
I would drop it on a dime for you.
(Hey oh!)
And whatever it takes.
(Hey oh!)
I'm gonna make my way home.
(Hey oh!)
We can turn our backs on the past
And start over...
Not long ago
I gave up hope,
But you came along
You gave me something I could hold on to.
Woah-oh.
And I want you.
Oh, woah.
More than you could ever know.
Before I met you
I used to dream you up and make you up in my mind (up in my mind)
Woah-oh.
And all I ever wanted
Was to be understood.
You've been the only one who could.
I could never turn my back on you.
(Hey oh!)
And whatever it takes.
(Hey oh!)
IÂ'm gonna make my way home.
(Hey oh!)
We can turn our backs on the past
And start over...
Not long ago (not long ago)
I gave up hope, (I gave up hope)
But you came along (you came along)
You gave me something I could hold on to.
Woah-oh.
And I want you.
Oh, woah.
More than you could ever know (more than you could ever know.)
More than you could ever know.
It's you.
Not long ago
I gave up hope,
But you came along.
Gave me something I could hold on to.
Woah-oh.
(Yeah!)
Not long ago (not long ago)
I gave up hope, (I gave up hope)
But you came along (you came along)
You gave me something I could hold on to.
Woah-oh.
And I want you.
Oh, woah.
More than you could ever know.
