Lyrics

Goodbye false hope
Goodbye cruel meeting
You left me for dead
With my heart still beating
What do I do
To kill the ache
How many draughts of comfort do I take?
What's left to lose?
Everything I cared about is gone
What's left to lose?
When there's nothing
How do I carry on?
And you left my life
When you shut the door
I'll start again in another place
New faces to replace your face
And one day I won't miss you any more
I walked all day
Just to stop my memory
But I saw you still
My loving enemy
And the rain came down
And soaked me through
But I felt nothing but the warmth of you
What's left to lose?
Everything I cared about is gone
What's left to lose?
When there's nothing
How do I carry on?
And I left my life
When I shut the door
I'll start again in another place
New faces to replace your face
And one day I won't miss you any more
And you left my life
When you shut the door
I'll start again in another place
New faces to replace your face
And one day I won't miss you any more
