lyrics

New Years 2016:-

Verse 1:

What's important is love. But what is love without you?
I remember the days when we believed it was just us two.
And nothing ever stays the say, it's always changing with the wind.
Do you remember the night when we looked down on the Parisian fields below?

Pre-chorus:

Now where did that moment go?
Where did the time go?
Why did you go?
I'll never know
I'll never know
and it breaks my heart
It breaks me.

Chorus:

Why don't you leave him now?
Why did you leave me now?
It's killing me

Why don't you leave him now?
Why did you leave me now?
It's killing me

And all of the time, I felt so left behind
and I was so alone.
Did it show?
Did it show?

Verse 2:

I sat on your bed, reading all that you said and in caved my head.
Now i'm afraid of everything and what i've become.
And all of the time, i've got you on my mind and i swear it's a joke.
And no one seems to love me and no one seems to understand.

Chorus:

Why don't you leave him now?
Why did you leave me now?
It's killing me

Why don't you leave him now?
Why did you leave me now?
It's killing me

And all of the time, I felt left behind
and I was so alone.
Did it show?
Did it show?

(Instrumental/ Solo)

Outro:

I'll take my chances on the one that I became
I never thought that you'd be the one to blame.
New Years 2016, when it all fell apart
and i'm still searching for my heart.

What's important is love, but what's love without you?
I remember the days when I believed it would be just us two.
