The Hero Will Go On

Dawn has come, angel

Spread your wings and fly

Heaven’s light to the stranger

His last breath is his goodbye

He has come to the end now

Close his weary eyes

Let these lovers morn upon his brow

As the bright sun shies

Come now, gentle breeze

Embrace the bloody stains

Time passes with the clouds’ ease

Bring forth the showering rain

Bathe the fields once golden

Life to the dying flower

When he falls do sweetly hold him

In the darkness of this hour

You see the end before your eyes

There’s a thunder in your heart

Losing hope in the thousand lies

Feel a breaking into shards

Glass drifting across the sea

Glass drifting across the sea

When all has come to nothing

The hero will go on

Whispers in the emptiness

A suspicious silence reeking fear

As the torn vein flows in endlessness

The starved wolf cries death is near

Draw forth your hope, leader

Do not let these terrors take you

Stand tall, never surrender

Make legend true

The burden bears heavily

Giant stones placed with a wish

Freedom, peace, live happily

How easily pain is dismissed

Yet lonely in the impatient crowd

Looking sadly to the moon

Noiseless screams so loud

Angel, carry him home soon

You see the end before your eyes

There’s a thunder in your heart

Losing hope in the thousand lies

Feel a breaking into shards

Glass drifting across the sea

Glass drifting across the sea

When all has come to nothing

The hero will go on

This is your destiny, ranger in the night

Take this broken blade, this day you will fight

Revenge for the ones you love, the red sun will come

Oh, how you weep in the field of war, wishing all was undone

When his wounds are fatal, the hero will go on

When all has come to nothing, the hero will go on

Have You Ever?

Have you ever loved somebody so much and had to let go?

Have you ever cried for them so long, but didn’t let them know?

Have you ever missed somebody crazy, but never said a word?

Did you keep loving them after and the pain felt much worse?

It hurts, no doubt, this aching in my lonely heart

I can’t believe I’m deciding finally we should be apart

It’s not that I don’t care about you

It’s just that I’m so complicated and we’d go through

More pain than there needs to be

More rain than there is in the sea

It’s insane, how couldn’t it be?

And I pray you will heal from me

‘Cause the only way to save you

Is for me to set you free

I hope someday you’ll forgive me

Have you ever loved somebody so much and had to let go?

Have you ever cried for them so long, but didn’t let them know?

Have you ever missed somebody crazy, but never said a word?

Did you keep loving them after and the pain felt much worse?

I had no intention of moving my arms

I’d hold you forever and keep you safe from harm

You don’t even realize how special you are

But the situation calls for me to admire you from afar

I don’t wanna let go

Will these seams ever sew?

Time keeps on passing

What am I waiting for?

I wonder if you cry

Like the way I do each night

My mind is screamin’ for you

I think I might just die

Have you ever loved somebody so much and had to let go?

Have you ever cried for them so long, but didn’t let them know?

Have you ever missed somebody crazy, but never said a word?

Did you keep loving them after and the pain felt much worse?

Day by day

Night by night

I feel so lonely

All these other people walking in my life

But all I want is you to hold me

You’re in my dreams

And you never leave

Not being able to touch you

Is like not being able to breathe

These precious memories

They make my heart grieve

But I have to move on

I wish you’d understand something was wrong

Oh, something was wrong

It’s so hard trying to be strong

Have you ever loved somebody so much and had to let go?

(I had to let you go)

Have you ever cried for them so long, but didn’t let them know?

(I didn’t let you know)

Have you ever missed somebody crazy, but never said a word?

(I never told you)

Did you keep loving them after and the pain felt much worse?

(It hurt so much more)

(Repeat until fades)

Somehow, Someway

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”

And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”

She don’t give a care for me

I know she’d never be there for me

Still, I keep up my tries

Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes

And thinking, maybe someday

Somehow, someway

Shawty don’t give a damn layin’ in a porcelain tub

While the man whose been dreamin’ about her all day

Is waitin’ by the telephone for her to call like she did say

But she’s rubbin’ soap down her body, feelin’ naughty, little shawty

It’s not even on her mind

She’s on her own grind ‘cause baby, she’s in her prime

Not sweet like a strawberry, she’s bitter like lime

But he waits, hopin’ on fate

His heart’s full of love, hers evaporates

She’s cruel, old school with higher expectations

He’s a fool, so uncool, but he’d die for her protection

And it’s not enough ‘cause he ain’t got what she wants

He plays tough, but he likes doin’ all her “don’ts”

Doesn’t stop him from trying hard

But she never seems to notice

So he calls her each time to let her know this

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”

And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”

She don’t give a care for me

I know she’d never be there for me

Still, I keep up my tries

Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes

And thinking, maybe someday

Somehow, someway

No reason to believe she’ll ever truly look at him

He’s not a sleeze, but little mama’s makin’ the chances slim

He’s up all night wonderin’ what can he do to express his lovin’

If only he could get a little closer and maybe get at least one kiss in

His plans are messed up

That chick is busy gettin’ dressed up

He’s callin’ and she’s fed up

Her face is gettin’ red up

“Go away, boy. Stop ringin’”

Just to hear her voice and his heart is singin’

Not obsessed, but thinks she’s the best

Sentimental-wise, he knows she ain’t the greatest

But her smile, damn, it drives him wild

And sometimes he finds himself imagining a child

With a wife as beautiful as she is

While he’s sendin’ her a text askin’ how she is

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”

And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”

She don’t give a care for me

I know she’d never be there for me

Still, I keep up my tries

Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes

And thinking, maybe someday

Somehow, someway

Baby girl, little shawty

Can I just say you’re a real hotty?

Every guy must have his eyes on you

But I’m seein’ much more than that too

I feel like you’re hidin’ somethin’ sweet inside

And I wish I knew what it was, would you confide?

There’s gotta be more than your harsh words

Your voice is the most angelic thing I’ve ever heard

And I know you’re gonna toss me out

And I know you don’t see anything in me

But I’m plannin’ on stickin’ around

With my fingers crossed that somehow, someway you’ll love me

Oh, oh

Ooh, oh, oh

Yeah, yeah

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”

And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”

She don’t give a care for me

I know she’d never be there for me

Still, I keep up my tries

Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes

And thinking, maybe someday

Somehow, someway

(Repeat x1)

Yeah, yeah

Somehow, someway, someday

Let Us Be

They say, they say we don’t know

They say we’re too young to never let go

And maybe they’re right

But why am I still holding you tight?

They say, they say we’ve lost our sense

And we’re going to pay the expense

But I’ll go with you all the way through

Jupiter, Neptune, Heaven, and Hell too

‘Cause I, I don’t care how old we are

We can go however far

They tell us no, but let’s runaway in my car

Because you, you and I are true

I’d sacrifice my everything for you

And I’d know you’d do the same thing too

For me, just we, so let us be

They say, they say we’re doing this wrong

That we’re confused and lost in this song

And whenever it ends

We’ll know it was all pretend

They say, they say they clearly know better

But after all this time we’re still together

Fighting this storm

When they try to separate us but we’re arm in arm

‘Cause I, I don’t care how old we are

We can go however far

They tell us no, but let’s runaway in my car

Because you, you and I are true

I’d sacrifice my everything for you

And I’d know you’d do the same thing too

For me, just we, so let us be

Man across the street, I understand

She likes to party, but I’m still her only man

Lady watching, it’s ok

I know I’m looking at the other chick

But I won’t touch her any day

‘Cause my little lady, she’s my everything

Mom, Dad, family, why are you pressing?

Is it because you’ve never seen young love work out?

Well, my babe and I will show you what it’s all about

‘Cause I, I don’t care how old we are

We can go however far

They tell us no, but let’s runaway in my car

Because you, you and I are true

I’d sacrifice my everything for you

And I’d know you’d do the same thing too

For me, just we, so let us be

(Repeat x1)

Just let us be

Let us be

Just let us be

When we're married then you'll see

Will You Come Save Me?

So afraid to trust

So afraid to love

Laying alone in my bed

Thoughts circling in my head

Wondering why

I could never really fly

Spread my broken wings

But my heart won’t sing

Tormented by this pain and I

Can’t close my eyes tonight, can’t sleep at all tonight

Facing this rain again and again

It’s beating down on me, I’m drowning in this sea

Will you come save me?

Thinking in doubt

Imagining a way out

For a moment things seem clear

And then the clarity disappears

Making discredited efforts

Inside it hurts

Running in circles repeatedly

Yearning to feel free

Tormented by this pain and I

Can’t close my eyes tonight, can’t sleep at all tonight

Facing this rain again and again

It’s beating down on me, I’m drowning in this sea

Will you come save me?

Been here before

I’ve called to you, angel

Why haven’t you answered my plea?

Closed all these doors

This is where I fell

Why haven’t you helped me?

So many tears, a loss of hope

But I see you in their faces

And I won’t let go

So will you come save me from my pain?

I’m aching so deeply inside

I’m tormented by

Tormented by this pain and I

Can’t close my eyes tonight, can’t sleep at all tonight

Facing this rain again and again

It’s beating down on me, I’m drowning in this sea

Will you come save me?

(Repeat x2)

Been here before

I’m calling to you, angel

Candle

Boy, can you tell me what I’ve been waiting for?

It sure doesn’t deserve to be you

Time has passed me by, my days have flown

They should’ve been my own

I’ve wiped too many tears these past years

Didn’t have the courage to go

Didn’t have the heart to leave you struggling

But I was better off alone

I still wait by the candlelight thinking of you every night

But in the flame I’ve found hope at last

I often dream of you

The memories keep me awake too

But I’ve found the strength to leave my past

And now I lay a woman of a new day

And all the pain slowly flies away

In my eyes, the situation was clear then

I had no doubt you’d be there

Until that moment when reality slammed the door

I just couldn’t take no more

You were a desire I couldn’t fight

Should we blame this on destiny?

We parted ways

Tell me what stayed

Besides the sadness, hurt, and dismay

I still wait by the candlelight thinking of you every night

But in the flame I’ve found hope at last

I often dream of you

The memories keep me awake too

But I’ve found the strength to leave my past

And now I lay a woman of a new day

And all the pain slowly flies away

Oooh, I’m not going to let my soul ache

Because you couldn’t keep your promises

You’re somewhere far away

But even you must remember those kisses

Do you feel my sorrow?

I wonder if it stays with you

Because I’m letting go

Time to set myself free and feel happy like I used to

But I still wait by the candlelight

(I still wait, I still wait)

Thinking of you every night

(About all we had, baby)

But in the flame I’ve found hope at last

(There’s hope for me to move on)

I often dream of you

(Of your eyes, your smile)

The memories keep me awake too

(Of us laughing together)

But I’ve found the strength to leave my past

(I’ve found the strength, I’m a strong woman)

And now I lay a woman of a new day

(It’s a new day)

And all the pain slowly flies away

(The pain is fading, fading)

And now I lay a woman of a new day

And all the pain slowly flies away

I will light a new candle today
