about

The oldest song on Reputations, this is a new version not the one on the band's first demo Quetzal. It's in a different key too. Still about how hard it is when you're heartbroken though...

lyrics

People say I’m all about forgiveness – I guess they don’t know
About the hopes and dreams that faded away and how I love you so

(Can’t go on) I just can’t go on / (Feeling strong) Oh with these feelings strong
I’ve got so much to lose / When I dream of you

Still I said heartache fade away, why you leaving me this way?
I wanted much better than this
The fall out from you and I, has left this hole inside
And I wanted much better than this

People say – what about the endings? Where do you go now?
Cause when you left it seems my heart lost forever under a darkened cloud

(Can’t go on) I just can’t go on / (Feeling strong) Oh with these feelings strong
I’ve got so much to lose / When I dream of you

Still I said heartache fade away, why you leaving me this way?
I wanted much better than this
The fall out from you and I, has left this hole inside
And I wanted much better than this

If I did wrong forgive me honey / it’ll always me my cross to bear
And I can see the rain fall down my tears are soaking through
I look in my arms but you’re not there

(Can’t go on) I just can’t go on / (Feeling strong) Oh with these feelings strong
I’ve got so much to lose / When I dream of you

Still I said heartache fade away, why you leaving me this way?
I wanted much better than this
The fall out from you and I, has left this hole inside
And I wanted much better than this
Still I said heartache fade away, why you leaving me this way?
I wanted much better than this
The fall out from you and I, has left this hole inside
And I wanted much better than this
