You'll never know how close we came
The word goodbye was almost spoken
Just one more thoughtless word
And I was ready to leave
Then the thought of how I'd feel
Waking up one day without you
I closed the door and turned around
You wouldn't believe it if you had seen it
CHORUS:
There I was...the note was even written
Seven pages...it took all day
There I was...I'd made my decision
With nothing but love standing in the way
This is worth the empty cab
This is worth the bag unpacking
If only for the lesson learned
I'm glad to go through this
Moment of truth, yeah
BRIDGE:
Nothing but the touch of your hand
Nothing but your kiss, I know
Didn't even have to think twice
Baby, how could I goPresident Joe once had a dream.
The world held his hand,gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
They called it the Prayer,its answer was law
Its logic stopped war,gave them food,
How they adored till it cried in its boredom,
'Please don't believe in me,please disagree with me
Life is too easy,a plague seems quite feasible now,
or maybe a war,or I may kill you all.
Don't let me stay,don't let me stay.
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green,I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
I need you flying,and I'll show that dying
Is living beyond reason,sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign,I can steal every mind
Don't let me stay,don't let me stay.
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green,I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
