Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't remember the moment I tried to forget
I lost myself, is it better not said?
Now I'm closer to the edge
It was a thousand-to-one and a million-to-two
Time to go down in flames, and I'm taking you
Closer to the edge
[Chorus]
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
But one day, maybe we'll meet again
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day, maybe we'll meet again
No, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
Can you, can you, can you, can you imagine a time when the truth ran free?
The birth of a sun, the death of a dream
Closer to the edge
This never-ending story, paid for with pride and fate
We all fall short of glory
Lost in our fate
[Chorus]
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day, maybe we'll meet again
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day, maybe we'll meet again
No, no, no, no
[Bridge]
No, no, no, no, I will never forget
No, no, I will never regret
No, no, I will live my life
No, no, no, no, I will never forget
No, no, I will never regret
No, no, I will live my life
[Chorus]
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day, maybe we'll meet again (No, no)
No, I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day, maybe we'll meet again (No, no, no, no)
[Chorus]
Closer to the edge
Closer to the edge (No, no, no, no)
Closer to the edge
Closer to the edge (No, no, no, no)
Closer to the edge
