On the day we broke I really felt the pain Of a broken soul on the run again I was half missing and half in a daylight daze But I found there's worse than being left alone Like being chained by the heart to the devil's clone I had everything but I lost it in the haze (chorus) Well I loved you once in a twilight dream And I gave you my soul in an endless stream But now it feels so good To have my heart back again I was lost and tired but that was yesterday And now I wonder why I ever felt that way 'Cuz now it feels so good To have my heart back again (end chorus) Who knows why we get so lost and lame We say never again, then we do the same We live but the lessons never seem to get learned After all these years we should know the ropes But we never let history dash our hopes Always play with fire, then cry when we get burned (to chorus) When I loved you I missed those birds the trees And the cool sweet brush of an autumn breeze I missed everything - it was a mystery They say love is supposed to make us see those things But it blinded me - it took away my wings Now I'm me again - and you're history (to chorus)
