lyrics

I tried calling you on your mobile phone
'cause lately you seem not to be at home that much
and baby you said let's keep in touch

It's been a lifetime since last I heard your voice
Don't wanna run but you left me no choice, you left me behind
and baby you've been so unkind

If time stood still
would I get my will
or nothing at all
how far would I fall

They say that time heals a broken heart
even when it's been torn apart away from it's roots
and baby I've got nothing to lose

I've tried erasing you from the corners of my mind
trying ever so hard not to rewind those thoughts
but baby I'm lost

And if time stood still
would I get my will
or nothing at all
how far would I fall

As time goes by the soul begins to heal
don't wanna love don't wanna feel that pain
and baby it's all been in vain

But if time stood still
would I get my will
or nothing at all
how far would I fall
