Blue October UK

When I had you
When your love would pull me through
When nights were long
When your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, in the gentlest way over you
Maybe I should follow your lead and turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me

When I had you
When your arms would hold me true
When nights were long
When your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, just go you own way and you do
Maybe I should swallow this pride and turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me

If we can take the chances, then there's nothing that we can't do
If we can take the chances, then there's nothing, nothing, that we can't do

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me

See them wasting on the bone, and the tears they cry
Find the places on you own, for the scars she'll hide

Night falls, as the Winter turns in sleet
She calls out loud "Won't you stay away from me"

All alone, feeling strong
When you need her, she'll be gone
You wonder why it took so long
And why it's harder to go on

See the faces on their own, and the words they lie
So you faked it back at home, happened once or twice

Night falls, as the Winter turns in sleet
She calls out loud "What the hell is wrong with me?"

All alone, feeling strong
When you need her, she'll be gone
You wonder why it took so long
And why it's harder to go on

Night falls, as the Winter turns in sleet
She calls out loud "What the hell is wrong with me?"

All alone, feeling strong
When you need her, she'll be gone
You wonder why it took so long
And why it's harder to go on

When you leave
Just have the decency to go
When you move on
Don't call me up to let me know
When your life runs on fast enough it will leave you behind

The sudden moments when you feel the need to go
The someone else's
There's no need to let me know

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights and let me go

When you leave
Please sense the need to be unkind
When you move on
Don't leave a note for me to find
When your life runs on fast enough it will leave you behind

And we won't sleep apart this wind will set you free
And you wont break this heart it's strong enough you see

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights and let me go

The sudden moments when you feel the need to go
The someone else's
There's no need to let me know

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights and let me go

I know a way through all these lies,
and I can show a fake that's in disguise.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.

I know we've wasted so much time,
and I can see the face on each new crime.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart

All alone, feeling strong
When you need her, she'll be gone
You wonder why it took so long
And why it's harder to go on

She looks back among, The broken words that tempted her to stay, And live a life this way. And she got lost among, The open doors that stands as if to say, I think I'm gonna change. And we all know the score We've seen it countless times before today It never was this way. Always running from something. Do you feel it at your back. Are you finding it too hard, to go back. And we all need hope, and we all need sorrow, and this to shall pass. So alay yourself, so alay yourself. He looks back among, The lies he told to hide himself away, And live a life this way. And he got lost among The hundred different people he became, i think its gonna change now. And we all know the score, we've seen it countless times before today, it never was this way. All ways running from something, do you feel it in your skin, are you finding it too much, to take in.

I know a way through all these lies,
and I can show a fake that's in disguise.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.

I know we've wasted so much time,
and I can see the face on each new crime.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart

Did you leave your past behind,
Did you check it at the door,
No one ever sees you smile,
Because you don't do it anymore.

And you can climb a mountain,
Empty your soul into the sea,
When your feeling really low,
There's always one place you can go,
If you would put your faith in me.

Burn your heart into the world,
Leave a mark upon the water,
The brightest light to be unfold,
Blaze a trail across the sky.

Did you read between the lines,
Did you follow every word,
I know its hard to think sometimes,
But there's still a lot for you to learn.

But you can climb a mountain,
Run rings around the moon,
When you waken in the night,
You push and stumble in the light,
And you deliver me too soon.

I know a way through all these lies,
and I can show a fake that's in disguise.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.

I know we've wasted so much time,
and I can see the face on each new crime.
You will be so lonely when I'm gone,
for I am everything that you are not.

Please forgive me now I've let you down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart.
Break my fall somehow I'm coming down.
I never meant to go this far, I never meant to break your heart

Reaching out to save you
Arms across the shore
Holding on to something
With a reason that's long gone before

The search is back on again
I offer my call

Near or far
I should have known
You'd go
Right from the start
Don't know where you are
Don't know where you've gone

Waking up the morning
Chasing you away
The sun is vapourising
Every moment I'm longing to save

( For you ) The search is back on again
You captured my thought

Near or far
I should have known
You'd go
Right from the start
Don't know where you are
Don't know where you've gone

Don't wanna play these silly games
Running all around, go on up, come on down
Don't wanna say, I made mistakes
I've had enough of life
I'm giving up,on yours and mine

You're on your own now, this freedom numbs you
You're on your own now, grief over comes you
Is it fear that calls your name?
Are you guilty just the same?

I hear the sighs, of the one tracked minds
Every step I can retrace
Now I'm leaving this place
Leaving this place
Now I'm leaving this place

Some ties are made, so hard to break
It's taken all the strength of mind
To cunjure up another side
I'm on the way, tomorrows land
Have you seen the light?
It's been burning us, a thousand times

You're on your own now, this reason haunts you
You're on your own now, belief overawes you
Is it fear that calls your name?
Are you guilty just the same?

As I leave the fight,and the valour slides
No more tragedy to face
Now I'm leaving this place
Leaving this place
Now I'm leaving this place

A long way, from home at last
It's the way I wanna be
A hot day, for getting past
The Devil we set free
I want to know
Why love won't conquer me
I need to go
As far as the eye can see

All day, in marigolds
The holy sing as sunbeams slip away
Heart bleeds into the fold
Go sell yourself on 'two bit' avenue

Why wait? For loneliness
For everlasting peace
When I'm safe, in no ones arms
A kaleidoscope of dreams
I want to know
If love will carry me
'Cause I need to go
Much further than I can see

All day, in marigolds
The holy sing as sunbeams slip away
Heart bleeds into the fold
Go sell yourself on 'two bit' avenue

Aah, aah aah, heard rumours
Lust's a very dangerous thing
Ooh, ooh ooh, heard rumours
Lust's a very dangerous thing

And so it goes
It's easy on your own again
Easy when your life depends on some one else
And so it goes
It's easy on your own again
Easy when your life depends on some one else

How wrong
This intrusion
This collusion
How wrong
This intrusion
This collusion

And so it goes
It's easy on your own again
Easy when your life depends on some one else
And so it goes
It's easy on your own again
Easy when your life depends on some one else

Oh don't you know,
Life's too short, there it goes.
Step on, step off,
It's like a fairground ride.
When days are close,
How d'you suppose,
Friends just disappear.
When you need them most.
They don't seem to,
They don't mean to....

Keep faith in me, in our old casino.
Please stay with me, in our old casino.

I've wondered why,
We return, no goodbyes.
Still gambling on,
Circled in our lives.
And round we go,
Heaven knows,
Been playing this game so long,
That I can't tell,
The roulette wheel
From the carousel so,

Keep faith in me, in our old casino,
Please stay with me, in our old casino.

Calm down baby, don't you stray now
As good fortune walks away
It's important on the other side
What you do today
You know you can go on
And nothing can go wrong
But I keep remembering...

Who used to know?
Who used to go?
You used to say
Easy come while easy slips away

Heaven knows how hard the change is
It's all left up to you
You can buy a place in paradise
With such a poignant view
Now everything that was
Is nothing more than loss
But I'll keep the memory...

Who used to know?
Who used to go?
You used to say
Easy come while easy slips away

When I had you
When your love would pull me through
When nights were long
When your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, in the gentlest way over you
Maybe I should follow your lead and turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me

When I had you
When your arms would hold me true
When nights were long
When your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, just go you own way and you do
Maybe I should swallow this pride and turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me

If we can take the chances, then there's nothing that we can't do
If we can take the chances, then there's nothing, nothing, that we can't do

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on, staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me, to me, roll over to me
