Let the big city sweep you away
I'll keep singing
Bout a life I can't escape
Let the big city sweep you away
I'll keep singing
Bout a life I can't escape
The one you're leaving
And if the bright lights keep you awake
Know I'm dreaming
Of the nights we spent
Watching dark turn into day
I never thought this bitter heart
Would melt so easy
But you caught me by surprise
And got me thinking
That maybe everything in life
Has got a reason
Cause I watched you turn
My darkness into day
And I've been here before
But its different
And I lost myself in search of this
Now I'm losing you, and I
Don't know what to say
And you don't know what to think
So we let it fade
I guess this time that we shared
Was but a season
The only pattern to my life
Seems to be changes
And I know I don't have the right to be disappointed
Cause I watched you turn
My darkness into day
And I've been here before
But its different
And I lost myself in search of this
Now I'm losing you and I
Don't know what to say
And you don't know what to think
I wish I had met you years ago
I could have used more time with such a gentle soul
But if I had met you years ago would you still be someone I know
I wish you had met me years ago because I was better then
And I've been here before
But its different
And I lost myself in search of this
Now I'm losing you and I
Don't know what to say
And you don't know what to think
So we let it fade
