Lyrics
Everything 11/02
Lewis/Lewis
I see that look in your eyes and I know what it means
I watch your lips move still I don?t hear a thing
We have been here before; we?ve fought this war
I?m not ready to let us go
As you turn to leave you can?t even look at me
Why you gave up I?ll never know
When I gave everything, everything
Looking back now aint it funny how
I had to be there to make it here
And who would have known I was better off alone
Just like a shadow you disappeared
And I thought I lost your love ? love isn?t what that was
Doesn?t hindsight always win?
I can honestly say where there?s a will there?s a way
I am ready to start again
And I?ll give everything, everything
Let the battle begin, still I lose if I win
Yeah that?s not what love should be
I have learned from before, love is so much more
It?s just taken this long to see
I can honest say there?s a will there?s a way
I am ready to love again
And I?ll still give everything, everything
