Lyrics
V 1
WHAT IF I SAID THAT- I DIDN'T MEAN IT?
WHAT IF I SAID THAT - I TAKE IT ALL BACK?
TAKE THE ANGER, TAKE BACK THE BRUISES,
TAKE BACK THE HEARTACHE, TAKE BACK THE PAIN!
CHORUS-
NOW - OUR TIME IS ALL BUT GONE, BUT WILL I LINGER ON ? -
THE EVER WIDENING SPACE BETWEEN US.
NOW - THE WORLD IT ALL MAKES SENSE, ITS NO COINCIDENCE -
THAT YOU SHOULD SLIP THROUGH THE SPACE BETWEEN US.
BRIDGE
YOU GIVE, AND YOU TAKE, AND YOU GIVE WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?
YOU GIVE, AND YOU TAKE, AND YOU GIVE WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?
CHORUS 2
NOW - THE WORLD IT ALL MAKES SENSE, ITS NO COINCIDENCE -
THAT YOU FALL INTO- THE SPACE BETWEEN US.
V2
HOW CAN I EVER FACE THIS EXISTENCE? HOW CAN I EVER DARE TO GO ON,
KNOWING WHAT I KNOW, DOING WHAT I DO, FEELING WHAT I FEEL, BEING WHAT I AM?
CHORUS
NOW - OUR TIME IS ALL BUT GONE, BUT I WILL LINGER ON -
THE EVER WIDENING SPACE BETWEEN US.
NOW - THE WORLD IT ALL MAKES SENSE, ITS NO COINCIDENCE -
THAT YOU SHOULD SLIP THROUGH THE SPACE BETWEEN US.
BRIDGE/ SOLO
CHORUS
NOW - THE WORLD IT ALL MAKES SENSE, ITS NO COINCIDENCE -
THAT YOU FELL INTO- THE SPACE BETWEEN US.
