Verse 1:

Yes indeed I'm, alone again

And here come emptiness, crashing in

Its either love or hate I cant find in between

'Cause I've been with witches and I have been with a queen

 

Chorus:

It wouldn't have worked out anyway

So now it's just another lonely day

Further along we just may

But for now its just another lonely day

 

Verse 2:

Wish there was something I could say or do

I can resist anything but the temptation from you

But I'd rather walk alone then chase you around

I'd rather fall myself then let you drag me on down

 

Chorus

 

Verse 3:

Yesterday seems like a life ago

'Cause the one I love today I hardly know

You I held so close in my heart oh dear

Grow further from me with every fallin' tear

 

Chorus, repeat last line 3x

 

Hold last G
