For every hour we've wasted
Pretending we're indifferent
We could be
Knowing what we need
Like wading through the pavement
I'm sinking
Where I used to think I'd fly
Regret is never kind
Well who can you really believe?
When all you hear is lies?
Put your faith in you and me
And let it ride or die
CHORUS:
Oh now I see the big picture
There ain't no use denying
Who we are
When we've come this far
Well I've been guilty
Of replacing my trust in you
With words that broke you down
With eyes that taste the ground
I forgot what I was chasing
But ran so far
I left myself behind
I'm standing out of time
I know there's a reason
To be out on the edge
With my face below the tide
But the plays never over
Till the actor says
Thank You and Good Night
(CHORUS)
Well I don't even think about it
I won't give up on you
Don't ask me to forget
What we've been through
Now we look back
On the years of pain
We won't go through that again
We won't be the ones
Standin' in the rain
(Solo)
Now forget all the lies we said
They never came from the heart
Forget the tears we shed
Now here comes
The hardest part
(CHORUS)
I won't give
There ain't no use denying
Who we are
When we've come this far
Pretending we're indifferent
We could be
Knowing what we need
Like wading through the pavement
I'm sinking
Where I used to think I'd fly
Regret is never kind
Well who can you really believe?
When all you hear is lies?
Put your faith in you and me
And let it ride or die
CHORUS:
Oh now I see the big picture
There ain't no use denying
Who we are
When we've come this far
Well I've been guilty
Of replacing my trust in you
With words that broke you down
With eyes that taste the ground
I forgot what I was chasing
But ran so far
I left myself behind
I'm standing out of time
I know there's a reason
To be out on the edge
With my face below the tide
But the plays never over
Till the actor says
Thank You and Good Night
(CHORUS)
Well I don't even think about it
I won't give up on you
Don't ask me to forget
What we've been through
Now we look back
On the years of pain
We won't go through that again
We won't be the ones
Standin' in the rain
(Solo)
Now forget all the lies we said
They never came from the heart
Forget the tears we shed
Now here comes
The hardest part
(CHORUS)
I won't give
There ain't no use denying

When we've come this far
