Album: Let Love In
(John Rzeznik)
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
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
