IF I HEARD IT ONCE

 

I HEARD IT A THOUSAND TIMES 

 

I ONLY WANT TO BELIEVE IT

 

IF I ONLY COULD

 

NEVER SURE I SHOULD

 

I SEE THE DOORS CLOSE BEHIND ME

 

LEAVING ME

 

SOMEWHERE I DON'T WANT TO BE

 

LEAVING ME

 

SOMEONE I'M NOT

 

 

TAKE IT AWAY

 

I DIDN'T WANT IT ANYWAY 

 

IF I CAN'T HAVE IT

 

I DON'T NEED IT

 

COULDN'T FEED IT

 

I MIGHT TRY

 

UNTIL I'M TIRED

 

THEN I'LL FLY

 

SCATTER ON THE FOUR WINDS

 

STILL I CLOSE MY EYES

 

BUT I CAN'T SLEEP

 

SO I CAN'T DREAM

 

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY

 

THERE'S NO END TO

 

THE DECEPTION AND LIES 

I CAN ALMOST HEAR THEM 

 

LAUGHING AS I CRY

I HAVE TO BE SO HARD

NOT GIVE AN INCH

STAND ON GUARD

FREEDOMS ON THE LINE

IT NEVER WASN'T AT ANYTIME 

CAN'T GO SLOW

NEVER HAVE THE TIME

YOU SHOULD KNOW

IT KEEPS YOU RUNNING

DRIFTING AWAY

WITHOUT CONCERN

TRY TO KEEP UP AS YOU CAN

 

RACING THE SUN

 

THE MILES GO BY A BLUR

 

IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR 

A ROAD THAT HAS NO END

YOU CAN LEAVE

AND COME BACK AGAIN

IF YOU STILL CAN'T FIND

THAT MISPLACED PIECE OF MIND

THERE'S STILL TIME TO SCATTER
