You said you'd light a candle
|
And you'd say a prayer for me
|
I feel the light has dimmed and gone
|
Half the world is begging
|
While the other half steals
|
Where did everything go wrong?
|
|
Some days I can't believe
|
Others, I'm on my knees
|
Trying to be heard
|
|
I was your anger
|
And you were my fear
|
Now that it's over
|
Of course it's so clear
|
But you were no angel
|
And I was no sin
|
Somehow I can't let it go
|
I can't let it go
|
|
And half the world is sleeping
|
While the other half dreams
|
You close your eyes
|
And then you're gone
|
And maybe my intentions
|
Have been misunderstood
|
I know you feel so beautifully wronged
|
|
Some days I can't believe
|
Others, I'm on my knees
|
Hoping I belong
|
|
I was your anger
|
And you were my fear
|
Now that it's over
|
Of course it's so clear
|
But you were no angel
|
And I was no sin
|
Somehow I can't let it go
|
I can't let it go
|
|
And laughter is my soul's release
|
But we're not smiling anymore
|
And can't we try to win this peace?
|
'Cause we're never gonna win
|
Never gonna win this war
|
|
I was your anger
|
And you were my fear
|
Now that it's over
|
Of course it's so clear
|
But you were no angel
|
And I was no sin
|
Somehow I can't let it go
|
I can't let it go
|
