Hello my friend, I'm sorry I've been out again
And I'm so far from sleeping
Been up and down your street again
As many times as I can find a reason
I saw your television on
And thought I'd tell you I was wrong
I'm sure you've heard it all before
If you can't find a place inside
To fool yourself, and lose your pride
Then, you I won't bother anymore
Will you take my hand?
Will you take my hand?
Will you take my hand,
And start me over?
'Cause I won't get by
On the losing side
Will you take my hand,
And start me over?
Its strange to stand here once again
We've both been hurt since then
I've heard about it
Ah, but then you'll say the same, old thing
'Its better to have lost
Than gone without it.'
Well, I'll tell you what
Since we're both here
Lets make these problems disappear
'Cause right now there's not a lot to say
As distance grows within our minds
From places hard to leave behind
Tomorrow, I'll be on my way
No matter what you tell yourself
Close your eyes, and wish away
A part of this you can't let go
A part of you will never change
Don't wake up to another lonely day
Take my hand and take this pain away
