I don't want to take away from you the things we did, The things we said, Not ever, never. Something pulls me close to you like a moth to a flame, Like a music box unwinding, You're winding. I'm on my own, I've got to go on, But I can't go on forever. If I could build a fortress of words and thoughts and broken dreams, I would. Something tells me deep inside, That you're not here, That you will never leave me. But you could. I'm on my own, I've got to go on, But I can't go on forever. I've got to be strong, But I can't go on forever. I've got to go on, But I can't go on forever.
