| One by one we take the fall
|
| A right of passage for us all
|
| So cautiously we proceed
|
| Two by two we learn the ways
|
| Uncertain of the words we say
|
| To get what we think we need
|
| Lead In:
|
| And how many times can I hang around?
|
| And how many times can you bring me down?
|
| (And we can’t seem to stop or start)
|
| Heart by heart we fall apart (heart by heart, heart by heart)
|
| Heart by heart we stop and start (heart by heart, heart by heart)
|
| It’s a flawed design, love on the line
|
| We always think we got it this time
|
| But we fail to play it smart, heart by heart
|
| Left and right we move ahead
|
| The empty promises were said
|
| But fade into a memory
|
| Lead In 2:
|
| And how many times can I even try?
|
| And how many wall can we hide behind?
|
| (And just when you think you’re gonna make a brand new start)
|
| (Repeat Chorus)
|
| Bridge:
|
| And now I see ahead of me
|
| The future ain’t what it used to be
|
| Cause I don’t dream this dream alone
|
| I’ll follow it until I bring it home
|
| (And I’ll bring it home)
|
| Ad-lib:
|
| I don’t know why I try and try (heart by heart, heart by heart)
|
| With each hello comes a goodbye (heart by heart, heart by heart)
|
| (Repeat Chorus) |
