Letting Go (bonus track)
. . .



Do you have a vision? Do you have a goal?
I'm watching you shrugging your shoulders, telling me you just don't know!
Do you get emotional? Is there something that you're passionate about?
I can tell that you're still searching, still trying to work it all out...
It takes time... take your time!
Umhum.. You will know when it feels right...

Where you gonna be in ten years time
Will you be happy with the way you've been living your life?
Will you be alright?
When you're looking back to all the years gone by
Will there be something that you'll say that you shoulda done right...
In you your life?

What would you fight for? For what do you stand?
How will you go about it? Do you have a master plan?
What are your demons? How much for your soul?
Have you found religion... and gone down that road?
I guess we all need something to believe...
Times haven't changed... that's how its gotta be!

Where you gonna be in ten years time
Will you be happy with the way you've been living your life?
Will you be alright?
Yeah.. When you're looking back to all the years gone by
Will there be something that you'll say that you shoulda done right...
We're talking about your life!

Are you a dreamer? Tell me all your dreams!
Can you say honestly what you want to be...
What you do when your back's against the wall?
Would you stand on your two feet? would you admit defeat?
These are the times you need to be strong...
Don't you know? Don't you know that its hard!
Have you learned to find a way...
You gotta find a way to carry on...

[Repeat x2]
Where you gonna be in ten years time
Will you be happy with the way you've been living your life?
Will you be alright?
Yeah... When you're looking back to all the years gone by
Will there be something that you'll say that you shoulda done right...
We're talking about your life! Your life!!

Where you gonna be in ten years time?
Will you be alright?
Tell me will you get it right? get it right?
Where you gonna be in ten years time?
Will you be happy with the way that you're living your life?
Do you feel it being right?
Where you gonna be in ten years time?
Will you be alright?
Tell me will you get it right? get it right?
Where you gonna be in ten years time?

We've come too far; we can't turn back,
Have our good days, have our bad,
When I'm feeling blue,
And you say that I'm hurting you,
We've tried so hard not to fight,
But sometimes we cross the line,
Then I wanna leave,
But you won't let me…

We have our highs and lows,
Just like everybody else,
Doesn't mean that we'll walk away,
We work through our mistakes…

Sometimes I love you; sometimes I don't,
But I never ever, never want to let you go,
The road's not easy, but the feeling's strong,
It's the little things that keep me holding on…

We're both guilty of mistakes,
Though you rarely take the blame,
All you put me through,
Sometimes I hated you,
But it's not mistakes in life you make,
It's the good you do along the way,
The dues you pay…

We have our highs and lows,
Something everybody knows,
Doesn't mean that we'll walk away,
We work through our mistakes…

Sometimes I love you; sometimes I don't,
But I never ever, never want to let you go,
The road's not easy, but the feeling's strong,
It's the little things that keep me holding on…

Oh of all the crazy things in life that's me,
There's you and me,
We've come so far sometimes I can't believe,
That I would change a thing…

Sometimes I love you; sometimes I don't,
But I never ever, never want to let you go,
The road's not easy, but the feeling's strong,
It's the little things that keep me holding on,
Sometimes I love you (sometimes I love),
Sometimes I don't (sometimes I don't),
But I never ever, never want to let you go,
The road's not easy, but the feeling's strong,
It's the little things that keep me holding on,
Keep me holding, keep me holding…
Sometimes I love you (sometimes I love),
Sometimes I don't (sometimes I don't),
But I never ever, never want to let you go,
The road's not easy (the road's not easy),
But the feeling's strong,
It's the little things that keep me holding on.



. . .



We should know by now that life is not the same,
I have watched you try to cover your mistakes,
I don't care about what the people say,
But it's down to me, I know my mind,
And I will find my way…

And I don't regret the time we spent,
My time with you: it was not in vain…

And I wonder why,
Where it all went wrong,
And how you lost your home,
You're the reason that I'm gone,
And I wonder how,
How you came to change,
And how you lost your way,
My life's just stayed the same,
Stay the same…

Couldn't spend my life, always trying to please you,
The time had come for change,
That's when I realised that I really did need you,
And I knew right then I wouldn't take the pain…

And I don't regret the time we spent,
My time with you: it was not in vain…

And I wonder why,
Where it all went wrong,
And how you lost your home,
You're the reason that I'm gone,
And I wonder how,
How you came to change,
And how you lost your way,
My life's just stayed the same,
Stay the same…

And I don't regret the time we spent,
My time with you: it was not in vain…

And I wonder why,
Where it all went wrong,
And how you lost your home,
You're the reason that I'm gone,
And I wonder how,
How you came to change,
And how you lost your way,
My life's just stayed the same,
And I wonder why,
Where it all went wrong,
And how you lost your home,
You're the reason that I'm gone,
And I wonder how,
How you came to change,
And how you lost your way,
My life's just stayed the same,
Stay the same…



. . .



I never thought, I could not know,
Hard as I try, I have to let go,
I never dreamed, how this would feel,
Torn at the seams, when all is revealed…

And it's too late, maybe you've changed, yeah yeah yeah…

You used to love me,
But now you're not sure,
With my heart broken,
I leave through your door,
It feels like I'm losing myself again,
This time is truly over…

I always thought, that we were strong,
But looking back I guess I was wrong,
Where did it change? I still don't know,
Nothing remains and nothing to show…

And it's too late, maybe you've changed, yeah yeah yeah…

You used to love me,
But now you're not sure,
With my heart broken,
I leave through your door,
It feels like I'm losing myself again,
This time is truly over…

Maybe you don't understand what I'm feeling,
I figured it out, the reason I'm leaving…

You used to love me,
But now you're not sure,
With my heart broken,
I leave through your door,
It feels like I'm losing myself again,
This time is truly over… is truly over…
This time is truly over… is truly over…



. . .


Yesterday brought a change,
Now your life will never be the same,
Oh it just ain't fair, no,
It's not the way it should have been,
Fate arrived and shattered all your dreams,
Now you want to scream yeah…

And when it rains, it pours,
You might tell yourself you can't…
Take it no more,
Then I will say to you…

Don't give up, don't give in,
Don't you know that you must play to win?
It's how it's always been, yeah,
It's time for you to make your move,
That's the way you get your life again,
If you don't give in, just play to win…

Just suppose you were low,
All your hopes and dreams got washed away,
You know they might some day, yeah,
Just get up from the floor,
Dry your eyes and run through open doors,
And make the moment yours, yeah…

And when it rains, it pours,
You might tell yourself you can't…
Take it no more,
Then I will say to you…

Don't give up, don't give in,
Don't you know that you must play to win?
It's how it's always been, yeah,
It's time for you to make your move,
That's the way you get your life again,
If you don't give in, just play to win…

Disillusioned and afraid,
Don't you know that we all get those days?
No-one can escape,
Now's the time to free your mind,
Throw the dice and let the good times roll,
Time to take control, yeah…

And when it rains, it pours,
You tell yourself you can't…
Take it no more,
Then I will say to you…

Don't give up, don't give in,
Don't you know that you must play to win?
It's how it's always been, yeah,
It's time for you to make your move,
That's the way you get your life again,
It's how it's always been, just play to win…

Ad-libs:(Don't give up, don't give in),
Play to win, play to win,
Don't give in, you play to win,
(It's time for you to make your move),
Don't you know that you must play,
Play to win, play to win,
And don't give in, don't give in…
Don't you know you must play, play,
Just play, just play to win…
Come on you're nearly there, don't just stop,
Throw those dice, cos it's your life,
Just play to win… and don't give in…

Maybe your guilt's making you feel,
You want to apologies
But it's too late; it's your mistake,
The time has now expired…

Save your concerns for someone else,
Don't ask me how I am…

You don't know how I feel,
How many times do I have to tell you that it's no big deal?
It's alright, cos I'm fine,
Maybe you should know that I'm much stronger, I'll survive…

Saying you're sorry: the same old story,
Excuses that are tired,
You never knew me, (don't be forced to be)
The damage that you done…

Save your concerns for someone else,
Don't ask me how I am…

You don't know how I feel,
How many times do I have to tell you that it's no big deal?
It's alright, cos I'm fine,
Baby don't you know that I'm much stronger? I'll survive…

You get your satisfaction,
I see it going down,
I'm sick of all your stories,
Of how you fool around,
And now you're seeking solace,
Won't find it in these arms,
Because it's just too late baby,
Are you no longer charmed?

Save your concerns for someone else,
Don't ask me how I am…

You don't know how I feel,
How many times do I have to tell you that it's no big deal?
It's alright, cos I'm fine,
Baby don't you know that I'm much stronger? I'll survive…
It's alright, cos I'm fine,
Don't you know,
Don't you know,
You don't know how I feel,
No big deal.

There's so many stories to be told,
Across the ages young and old,
Could it be that we've become immune?
To all we hear on daytime news,
Where is the passion to unite?
Because divided we can't fight,
All the troubles in this life,

There's so many things that we are fighting, yeah,
There's so many people out there trying, yeah…

And there's a little girl only 6 years old,
Her daddy does drugs, her mama's on the road,
She's a latch key kid before she's even grown,
All we really need to do is give the girl a chance,
Put her on a road where there's no way back,
To the life that she's always known,
We gotta do something,
Can't do nothing…

A&E is full of life,
Somebody's son got in a fight,
Doctors say it's touch and go,
So nobody's going home,
Friday nights is where it stops,
Kids all high and having fun,
There won't be a loss of life,
Until he thinks ‘let's start a fight'…

There's so many things we could be fighting, yeah,
But do we give a damn and are we trying, yeah…

And there's a little girl only 6 years old,
Her daddy does drugs, her mama's on the road,
She's a latch key kid before she's even grown,
All we really need to do is give the girl a chance,
Put her on a road where there's no way back,
To the life that she's always known,
We gotta do something, yeah,
Can't do nothing, yeah,
It's a crazy world we're living in, yeah,
It's a crazy world we're living in, yeah…

Out to town in a club, a girl's on the floor,
She's lying in the dark, she did it once before,
Her body's on drugs, she did it for a rush,
Don't it make you wonder just how many more?
We gotta do something it's not right,
We can't keep saying our hands are tied,
We gotta do something but it's too late,
There'll be another mother digging a grave…

There's so many things that we are fighting, yeah,
But do we give a damn and are we trying, yeah…

And there's a little girl only 6 years old,
Her daddy does drugs, her mama's on the road,
She's a latch key kid before she's even grown,
All we really need to do is give the girl a chance,
Put her on a road where there's no way back,
To a life that she's always known,
We gotta do something, yeah,
Can't do nothing, yeah,
It's a crazy world we're living in, yeah,
It's a crazy world we're living in, yeah…

The world's gone crazy, that we are living in,
The world's gone crazy, that we are seeing in,
The world's gone crazy, more than a little bit,
The world's gone crazy…

Sky is wide; trees are burnt,
Been a while since you stood here,
You feel cold, so alone,
Yet the wind whispers ‘hello' and it blows,
When it blows…

‘Fallen angel, with shattered dreams,
Trying to make some sense of all you've seen,
Let it go, let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, let it go…'

Wounded spirit, troubled soul,
Fallen angel, let it all go,
Just believe it and you will see,
All the good things your life can be…

And this dusk turns to dawn,
Still you're battered in your thoughts,
You feel lost, so alone,
And you wonder can you carry on,

How amazing your life would be,
If you held on, long enough to see,
Let it go, let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, let it go…

Wounded spirit, troubled soul,
Fallen angel, let it all go,
Just believe it and you will see,
All the good things your life can be…

Fallen angel, you've made mistakes,
You can't keep living your life this way,

Let it go, let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, let it go…

Wounded spirit, troubled soul,
Fallen angel, just let it all go,
Just believe it and you will see,
All the good things your life can be…
Wounded spirit, troubled soul,
Fallen angel, just let it all go,
Just believe it and you will see,
All the good things your life can be…

Let it go, let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, let it go, troubled soul,
Let it go, let it go…

You have come to show me another side of you,
The part where you are selfish in everything you do,
Imagine what I'm feeling and what this does to me,
You have got me feeling that you don't care for me…

I don't feel that on your mind,
It's how you make me feel…

It's give and take when you try to get it right,
I don't think you understand and haven't taken time,
You and I: we cannot survive,
When one of us is trying and one is in denial…

If you start believing, then baby let me know,
Then I will try to stop you, I won't let you go,
I wish that you would listen to what I have to say,
I am trying to save us, so don't you walk away…

I don't feel that on your mind,
It's how you make me feel…

It's give and take when you try to get it right,
I don't think you understand and haven't taken time,
You and I: we cannot survive,
When one of us is trying and one is in denial…

I don't think you know me, given a little away too late,
I don't think I ask too much, but still you hesitate,
I want back the old days: times we didn't fight,
We'll iron out things and work it out: I want to get it right,
But it's…

It's give and take when you try to get it right,
I don't think you understand and haven't taken time,
You and I: we cannot survive,
When one of us is trying and one is in denial…

The war of two minds,
Why do we constantly fight?
The breaking of two hearts,
Oh, how long before the calm?

Looking for a place: some kind of middle ground,
A little peace is what is needed now,
I guess I'm trying to say can we work it out?
Stop this…

The war of our two minds,
I'm sick of fighting all the time,
Emotions rising high,
If a little hope is what we got,
Then we gotta try to stop,
The war of our two minds…

How did we get to here?
Two souls once so near,
Stop the fighting: that's our cure,
Leave our troubles at the door,
Make peace instead of war…

I really don't think you know what we got,
And all we used to share and then we both forget,
I'd do anything just to make it stop,
Stop this…

The war of our two minds,
I'm sick of fighting all the time,
Emotions rising high,
If a little hope is what we got,
Then we gotta try to stop,
The war of our two minds…

Baby won't you hear me out?
Don't you ever wonder what this is all about?
Let's stop this…

The war of our two minds,
Are you sick of fighting all the time?
Emotions rising high,
If a little hope is what we got,
Then we gotta try to stop,
The war of our two minds…

Mmm, mmm, mmm…
Mmm, mmm, mmm…

Took a while for me to figure out what just happened,
I'm sitting here alone: my life in pieces,
Trying so hard to understand, hoping I can,
Get some clarity, before I lose my sanity…
Got it all in my head, the words you said,
I can't forget…

And it seems like a dream,
Now you're gone and it's just me,
I'm on my own; I'm all alone,
And the pain, that I feel,
Given time I know will heal,
But still you're gone and I'm on my own…

Picking up the pieces of my life,
Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time,
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart,
Picking up the pieces…

Said you found someone, someone like you,
I'm hoping she does better than I did with you,
I don't wish you bad, but you left me sad,
You came and broke my heart into a million pieces…
Got it all in my head, the words you said,
Before you left…

And it seems like a dream,
Now you're gone and it's just me,
I'm on my own; I'm all alone,
And the pain, that I feel,
Given time I know will heal,
But still you're gone and I'm on my own…

Picking up the pieces of my life,
Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time,
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart,
Picking up the pieces…

Was it all just a dream?
Now you're gone and it's just me,
I'm on my own; I'm all alone,
And the pain, that I feel,
Given time I know will heal,
But still you're gone and I'm on my own…

Picking up the pieces of my life,
Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take some time,
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart,
Picking up the pieces,
Picking up the pieces of my life,
Picking up the pieces, it's gonna take a while,
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart,
Picking up the pieces…

Am I not the same as you?
Do I not live as you do?
Do we not work the same land?
Bear the same marks on our hands?
Flesh and blood we're both the same,
Though we go by different names,
Both have families to feed,
Though we see things differently,

We're running out of possibilities,
Running out of time…

When the walls come tumbling down,
And you've lost too much to count,
Will you feel you've won the fight?
When there's no one else in sight?
When the walls come tumbling down?
And there's no one else around,
Will you be on the side of right?
When all you've loved has died…

To your conscience I appeal,
I stand before you, make a deal,
Before we all lose control,
And there's nothing left that's whole,
They say sometimes revenge is sweet,
But where there's loss how can that be?
We are human so we feel,
We are men not made of steel…

We're running out of possibilities,
Running, running out of time…

When the walls come tumbling down,
And you've lost too much to count,
Will you feel you've won the fight?
When there's no one else in sight?
When the walls come tumbling down?
And there's no one else around,
Will you be on the side of right?
When all you've loved has died…

Tumbling down, no-one's around,
Will you be on the side of right?
Tumbling down, no-one's around…

We're running out of possibilities,
Running out of time…

When the walls come tumbling down,
And you've lost too much to count,
Will you feel you've won the fight?
When there's no one else in sight?
When the walls come tumbling down?
And there's no one else around,
Will you be on the side of right?
When all you've loved has died…

I’m letting go,
Cos’ I let you take over,
My heart, my soul,
I will forever,

Every day I find a way to cope,
All my obsessions, all my pain, I’m letting them go…

Now I’m letting go,
Of all the memories,
All the pain you caused,
You were haunting me,
Cos I been missing you,
And I been loving you,
For far too long…

My peace of mind,
Is what matters,
I can make it happen,
To live my life,
I must try,
To leave the past behind…

There’s nothing left of us for me to hold,
Now the time is right, I’ve got, I’ve got to move on…

Now I’m letting go,
Of all those memories,
Of the pain you thought,
You were haunting me,
Cos I been missing you,
And I been loving you,
For far too long,
You should know I’m,
I’m letting go,
Of all the tears you caused,
All the pain I felt,
Every time that you were near,
Cos I been missing you,
And I been loving you,
For far too long…

I’ve wasted time,
But I’ve found my freedom,
Now that it’s mine,
It’s time that you were leaving…

All my panic, all my fears: I let them go,
No more excuses, no more tears: I’m in control…

Now I’m letting go,
Of all those memories,
Of the pain you thought,
You were haunting me,
Cos I been missing you,
And I been loving you,
For far too long,
Don’t you know I’m,
I’m letting go,
Of all the tears you caused,
All the pain I felt,
Every time that you got near,
Cos I been missing you,
And I been holding on,
For far too long…

Don’t you know I’m letting go,
Of the pain you caused,
Cos I been loving you,
I’ve been missing you,
For far too long…
