Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Once there was a day we were together all the way

An endless path unbroken

But now there is a time

A torture less sublime

Our souls are locked and frozen

[Verse 2]

Once we were years ahead, but now those thoughts are dead

Let me go (Let me go)

All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me

Let me go

I walk alone and yet, never say goodbye

Let me go (Let me go)

Change of heart and change of mind, Heaven fell that night

Let me go

[Verse 3]

I tried but could not bring the best of everything

Too breathless then to wonder

I died a thousand times, found guilty of no crime

Now everything is thunder

[Verse 4]

Daytime, all I want is nighttime, I don't need the

Daytime, all I want is nighttime, I don't need the

Daytime, all I want is nighttime, I don't need the

Daytime, all I want is nighttime, I don't need the

Got to, got to, got to, got to let me go

[Verse 5]

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da-da

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da-da

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da-da

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da-da

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da-da

Be-doo, bot-doo, bot-doo, ba-da, ooh

[Verse 6]

Once we were years ahead, but now those thoughts are dead

Let me go (Let me go)

All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me

Let me go

I walk alone and yet, never say goodbye

Let me go (Let me go)

Change of heart and change of mind, Heaven fell that night

Let me go

[Verse 7]

The best years of our lives, the hope of it survives

The facts of life unspoken

The only game in town

I'll turn the last card down

And now the bank is (Broken)

(Broken)

[Verse 8]

The guilty have no pride (Broken)

They were the best years of our lives

(Broken)

(Broken)

I'll turn the last card down
