Never Again
Your breath lingers on my skin
Taking over all that’s true
Wanting you to win
I’m wondering, is this a sin?
I’m beginning to fall
Now I’m losing it all
Your face I picture everywhere
Imagining you lying here next to me
Not showing how much I care
Never daring to go back to there
Every kiss was a lie
Don’t want to admit it and say goodbye, say goodbye
Chorus:
You loved me
You belonged to me
Most nights alone
Waking to familiar emptiness
Eating me inside
Just want to let it go and jump
Yearning to fly
Never to cry
Never again, never again, never again
Your touch, your skin
Radiates around me
You saying never give in
Are you really there?
I’m not so sure
Anymore
Sometimes I feel you
When everyone’s gone
Were you the only one who was true?
Too bad I’m feeling so blue
Everyday’s another that I’ve lived through
Everyday’s another I have to miss you
Chorus:
You loved me
You belonged to me
Most nights alone
Waking to the familiar emptiness
Eating me inside
Just want to let it go and jump
Yearning to fly
Never to cry
Never again, never again, never again
Nothing has changed inside of me
I still want you and I still love you too
Crying at night when everyone’s gone
Breaking broken wounds that can never move on
Never move on, never move on, never move on
Loving you, loving me
Crying, screaming at your face
No one looks up
Should I give up?
Chorus:
You loved me
You belonged to me
Most nights alone
Waking to the familiar emptiness
Eating me inside
Just want to let it go and jump
Yearning to fly
Never to cry
Never again, never again, never again
Lonely, lonely
Searching, screaming
Falling, falling
