You were the wind that let me go Who we are I'll never know But when we spoke I knew you well You knew me well You loved me through and through I never thought I would watch you leave us From a room as a kid I held so close I was a son made upon sand

We'll never fade away I will stand my own ground I won't fade I will tear down myself We'll never fade Be a hero, kill your ego But it doesn't matter, it's all just a pack of lies Build a new base, steal a new fate It doesn't matter, it's all just to

You might hear it on the radio. Baby you never know, But it's gonna be just about you and me, How much I miss you. You're the one that got away. You're gonna hear your song someday. And then I'll write you a song. Girl, I'm gonna warn ya, I'm leaving

I bless the rains down in Africa It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh) I hear the drums echoing tonight But she hears only

They got it, they want it, they give it away They got it, they want it, they give it away When you hide, I'll cover it up When you cry, I'll cover it up You've got my eyes, you've got my eyes You'll never be mine, ah, but you've got my eyes When you lie,

We got something they don't A fire burning deep in our bones On fire when we get home Smokin' when we're away They may say we're done That we will never win this one But we know differently They don't know you And they don't know me

If you were here, I'd never have a fear So go on live your life But I miss you more than I did yesterday You're so far away So c'mon show me how 'Cause I mean this more than words can ever say Oh baby here comes the sound I took a train outta New Orleans

I just keep on wishin' that the money made you stay You ain't never cared about that bullshit anyway You know I would throw it all away All this stuntin' couldn't satisfy my soul Got a hundred big faces, but I'm still alone Ayy, I would throw it all away

Pounding all these spikes in my veins Looking at my thoughts, I take my time Never gonna run away But the pain always gets in the way Slowly watch me die I’m insane, so dangerous Don’t you dare get in my way Throwing in the towel Got me strained, so

Fucked in the head from all the things that we did But I will never forget I need you, my medication I push you away until you beg me to stay Just for the thrill of the chase, you got me I don't know what to do So I push you away until you beg me to stay
