Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did
[Verse 2]
And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did
[Verse 3]
And now
When all is done there is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won, you can go ahead, tell them
[Verse 4]
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the rooftops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them all I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
[Verse 5]
Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worse
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know
When thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love and words
Empty promises will wear
I know, I know
[Verse 6]
And now when all is done there is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead, tell them
[Verse 7]
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the rooftops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
[Verse 8]
And I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did
[Verse 9]
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the rooftops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible
