This song was so close to being another smash hit. Was just missing something. Im not musically inclined to kniw what it is...but this was close but i still love it
Where do I start There's so much I can say Cause words left unsaid They haunt me to this day Too many times I've built up these walls Surrounding my own life I swear I'll make it right I do remember The fire in your eyes Keep the faith and maybe We'll survive No you can't turn back time It's gone in the blink of an eye You can learn from what's been done Break the chains and love someone There's been so many tears And heartaches thru the years Just hold on to me now And we'll make it thru somehow Don't just turn back time So where do we go I leave this up to you I've said what I can say I know what you've been thru Don't you feel so lost Here's your alibi I'll never leave your side I swear to you this night Cause I do remember As I look into your eyes With faith and hope and love We'll survive No you can't turn back time It's gone in the blink of an eye You can learn from what's been done Break the chains and love someone There's been so many tears And heartaches thru the years Just hold on to me now And we'll make it thru somehow Don't just turn back time No you can't turn back time It's gone in the blink of an eye You can learn from what's been done Break the chains and love someone There's been so many tears And heartaches thru the years Just hold on to me now And we'll make it thru somehow Don't just turn back time
Woke up this morning all alone I got a ringin' in my head I couldn't take it anymore today She left me here for dead Oh, I (echoed) And it don't come as no surprise I should have known if from the start The lights are faded And I can't deny this place ain't got no heart Oh, you can hear me tonight You can hear me tonight You'll have to carry me Back from Cali I'm tired and broken and I lost my way You'll have to carry me Back to where I belong You'll have to carry me Back from Cali I don't want money I don't need the fame You'll have to carry me Back to where I belong I got to leave this angel city I can't do it by myself So if you please Mama, can you save me Before I blow this life to hell Oh, love Mama drag me by the feet And just drag me home You'll have to carry me Back from Cali I don't care if you think I'm to blame You'll have to carry me Back to where I belong You'll have to carry me Back from Cali The angel city where the devils play You'll have to carry me Back to where I belong Yeah, you can hear me tonight You can hear me tonight You can hear me tonight You can hear me tonight I've lost my way I'm so alone And all I want to do is come home
Snake still smokes that solo, and Erik's unreal high notes are awesome. Erik singing this is by far my favorite live version of this song, the only other version that beats this, is the the album version.
The lyrics I'm closing my eyes, don't wanna look back I don't wanna see, wanna hear no more I'm bowing my head this ghost from the past I don't understand what we're fighting for I fall into the night Yeah I fall into the night I feel buried alive I just can't get out It keeps getting worse for every day I'm trapped in this house these walls are so cold Slips out of my hands and I lose control Come wake me up when the winter ends Disconnect me from this burning pain Come wake me up with the summer rain 'Cause my heart don't wanna play this game So shut the light and wake me up when the winter ends Come wake me up when the winter ends We're fading away from color to gray The fire is gone never to return The unbreakable chain is broken in two At every turn yeah we crash and burn Come wake me up when the winter ends Disconnect me from this burning pain Come wake me up with the summer rain 'Cause my heart don't wanna play this game So shut the light and wake me up when the winter ends Come wake me up when the winter ends These tired hearts are torn and broken And all the things we leave unspoken 'Cause I don't wanna fight, I gotta leave and walk away There's nothing more to do, nothing to say Come wake me up when the winter ends Disconnect me from this pain Come wake me up with the summer rain 'Cause my heart don't wanna play this game Come wake me up 'Cause I don't want the pain Come wake me up with the summer rain 'Cause my heart don't wanna play this game So shut the light and wake me up when the winter ends Come wake me up when the winter ends Come wake me up when the winter ends The winter ends
