All the broken promises
All my good intentions don't add up to very much
And I realise whatever happened,
Whatever happened

I remember all the moments
That I've wasted in my life
All the things I was always gonna do
Why is it now when it's too late
That I finally realise what's important to
me
To think that everything that's dear to me
And is always in my heart
Could so easily be taken
And it's tearing me apart]
Going over and over in my mind
I relive it one second at a time

Calling all stations
Can anybody tell me, tell me exactly where
I am
How different things look when your all on
your own
Watching the darkness closing all around me
All around me
And I look for the feeling
Of your arms to remind me
Of everything that's dear to me
And is always in my heart
Could so easily be taken
And it's tearing me apart
Going over and over in my mind
I relive it one second at a time
