lyrics

We were born so innocent,

Lived life in dreams and books it seemed like everything was meant to be.

Love was found and lost again, I never thought I'd learn to mend.



I never knew that my walls would just come crashing down.



You were a god to me.



Life goes on, I still see wrong,

But i learnt how to carry on and lose myself as someone else,

I'd never show them how I felt.



I never knew that my walls would just come crashing down.



All the signs were there,

I was standing so close yet I felt so far from you.

What was I to do?

I was standing so close yet I felt so far from you.



You had a heart so sure, but I only wanted you to notice;

We were young but never hopeless, we lost our innocence along the way.

When love was found and lost again, I never thought I'd lose a friend.



I never knew that my walls would just come crashing down.



All the signs were there,

I was standing so close yet I felt so far from you.

What was I to do?

I was standing so close yet I felt so far from you.



I never knew that my walls would just come crashing down.



If I did it all again, I'd do it all the same my friend.

I'd tear my soul, my flesh, my bones, for you I'd do a thousand wrongs.

If I did it all again, I'd do it all the same my friend.

So I'll do it all the same again, as long as you're with me 'til the end.
